Sonnet

I tried to make a sonnet, it was hard

I tried many ideas but none caught my eye

It was like playing a game with bad cards

There was no escape, I guess i just die

Then it hit me, I knew what to do now

This struck me, just like a falling black cow

This idea was so simple to do 

Why not just hit me with a bright pink shoe

All I had to do was some simple rhymes

And try to collect them like falling dimes

Then I could be as good as Shel Silverstien

So this sonnet wasn't hard after all

I just had to think like a well known poet

Then it could be done faster then you know it
