Guest guest Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Hi, I've enjoyed a few poems in this forum lately and thought I'd give it a go myself. Since Shakespeare is the writer who amazes me the most and gives me the greatest highs and the biggest goose bumps, I thought I'd have a go at writing a sonnet using the rhyming scheme he was familiar with. For what it's worth, here it is. MY BUS My bus is small and rusty, but it's mine. The passengers are noisy, every one, They scream out destinations, but that's fine. They're loud and I ignore them, and it's fun. My bus is small and rusty, but it's good. It's viscious and a lot of times obscene, Depending on their attitude, their mood. It's just the way my world is, how it's always been. It's my bus, my home, and I live in it. My passengers may hate the road I take And rant and rave and growl and call me shit And curse me for the choices that I make, But I ignore them and it turns out fine. My bus is small and rusty, and it's mine. Cheers, Stan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
