Sonnets
The other day I was pondering and looking over some of my poems; pieces I actually wrote some time ago. I came across an attempt at a sonnet which I had entitled ‘A Sonnet to Tracey (my friend for life)’ and is dedicated to my wife. We met on the 21st June, (the summer solstice).
If you have ever written or tried to write a sonnet, you will know how difficult they are to master. Shakespeare, on the other hand is reported to have composed a plethora of sonnets. The actual figure seems to be a little cloudy but it appears that he can be credited with well over 100 works of this type.
