"Love poems ♥!"
Shunsui, it seemed, was still quite unaware that there was anything particularly strange or different this week, so apologies to his students, but class would certainly be continuing on as usual, albeit with a very specifically thematic tilt, because when there were vibes, you just leaned right into them.
"Specifically," he continued with a chuckle, as he handed out a few papers with the poems in question printed on them, "sonnets, and most specifically still, a few of Shakespeare's better known ones ♥. Now, the sonnet is a type of poem that involves a particular structure: fourteen lines using any of a number of distinct but strict rhyme schemes, typically having ten syllables per line. Shakespeare is considered to be the most well-known purveyor of such poetry, just as Basho could be considered quite the master of the haiku. So what we will do today is look over these five sonnets as examples, discuss them, in both structure and content, and then you can spend the rest of the class brainstorming and thinking of your own sonnet. Pretty simple, neh ♥? So let us begin, and have a gander at our first poem to start us out..."

Listen to the Lecture and Discuss - Creative Writing, 02/16.
But surely, you'll have some thoughts to share on the poems or some deep, important questions on the nature of the sonnet, too, right?
