Esuohlim Yep, it's entirely correct. Iambic pentameter and everything.

kellychaos Imagine the following Led Zepplin song being read in a snooty British accent as if it were the height of poetry. They did that on SNL once and it came off pretty funny (it's kind of a visual thing too :/ ):

Hey, hey, mama,
said the way you move,
gonna make you sweat,
gonna make you groove.
Oh, oh, child, way you shake that thing,
gonna make you burn,
gonna make you sting.
Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way,
watch your honey drip,
can't keep away.

FS I can't entirely recall how it goes, but I have the feeling that that rhyme scheme isn't entirely right.

Rockin' the shakespearean sonnets

Hey everyone, wouldn't it be fun to make some shakespearean sonnets? (probably only if you're a literary dork like myself)


The darkness quickly fills the barren land,
As the old sun makes its rapid descent.
Colors now shift across the tired sand,
The old and hot day is now quickly spent.

So with the little time that still remains,
Let us walk boldly into the dark night.
And before that old sun finally wanes,
Let us take a new, monumental flight.

This barren land will not yeild any fruit,
But I will be fine with your sweet embrace,
And the lovely melodies from your flute.
So let us now enter that brand new space.

So, hand in hand, we will let ourselves sail.
The two of us? I know we will prevail.
