5. Poetry--Sonnets

6. Warm Up Write a poem about a character who can’t laugh.

7. The Sonnet Shakespearean Sonnet: A “sonnet” is a fourteen-line lyric poem, usually written in rhymed iambic pentameter. The English or Shakespearean sonnet consists of three quatrains (four-line stanzas) and a couplet (two lines) with a distinct rhyming pattern.

8. The Sonnet William Shakespeare “Sonnet 130” My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun;a Coral is far more red than her lips’ red.b If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;a If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.b I have seen roses damasked, red and white,c But no such roses see I in her cheeks;d And in some perfumes is there more delightc Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.d I love to hear her speak, yet well I knowe That music hath a far more pleasing sound.f I grant I never saw a goddess go:e My mistress when she walks treads on the ground.f And yet, by heaven I think my love as rareg As any she belied with false compare.g

9. Iambic meter Shakespeare's predominant meter was iambic. A unit of iambic meter, called an iambic foot, consists of a soft stress followed by a sharp one: da-DUM. (A good example of an everyday word that acts as an iambic foot is toDAY.) Shakespeare wrote most of his poetry in iambic pentameter, five units of iambic beat to a line: "But SOFT, what LIGHT through YONder WINdow BREAKS." daDUM daDUM daDUM daDUM daDUM

10. The Sonnet Composed Upon Westminster Bridge, September 3, 1802 William Wordsworth, 1770 - 1850 Earth has not anything to show more fair: Dull would he be of soul who could pass by A sight so touching in its majesty: This City now doth, like a garment, wear The beauty of the morning; silent, bare, Ships, towers, domes, theatres, and temples lie Open unto the fields, and to the sky; All bright and glittering in the smokeless air. Never did sun more beautifully steep In his first splendour, valley, rock, or hill; Ne’er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep! The river glideth at his own sweet will: Dear God! the very houses seem asleep; And all that mighty heart is lying still!
