A “How to Write a Sonnet” Sonnet

From writing Sonnet many choose to run,
They fear its grip as if it were a curse.
But friends, I say the mission can be fun.
A challenge to new heights in every verse.

First syllables, there’s ten in every line.
Lines one and three, then two and four must rhyme.
Make rhythm smooth as if it was good wine.
Don’t rush to finish, best to take your time.

The hardest part is meaning to convey.
It does not have to speak of love, regret.
Could write about real things within a day.
Just know, when writing Sonnet you will sweat.

If you have followed steps listed above.
A Sonnet will be one you’ll grow to love.
