The Child That Went With The Fairies {Italian Sonnet}

by xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex   Dec 6, 2006


Deep within the forests of precious time,
A child sits, absorbed within his play,
Hugging dazzling fairies that will not stray.
Beautiful stories told, as trees they climb,
For the end will very soon come to the day.
Dancing around gladly their at their prime,
As child listens to their tales of rhyme,
While the fairie and child sit and play.

Clasping hands together, they dance in glee,
As sparkling stars shine in dashing skies,
Fairies of beauty shine with light of blue.
The boy soon will grasp his true destiny,
As precious angel like blue fairies sigh,
Their fate, his destiny certainly true.

An Italian sonnet is composed of an octave, rhyming abbaabba, and a sestet, rhyming
cdecde or cdcdcd, or in some variant pattern, but with no closing couplet.

    Definantly deserves higher.
    Again-almost flawless.
    the only two lines i would look at are.
    For the end will very soon come to the day.
    Dancing around gladly their at their prime,
    the first line seems childish, and choppy. it seems slighty as though you couldn't find a rhyme, or something. and the second their-they're.

    But thats it! downvoters suck. =[ this was a very well written sonnet. =]

    Beautiful job. just a few things...
    "Dancing around gladly their at their prime,"

    Do you mean "they're at their prime"

    All lines were great and original. But I know what you're capable of and I think you can make the fifth line stronger. Keep it up
