The colored leaves dock on the meadow lawn

The trees start to become barren with ease

I look through my window with a slight yawn

How did I become so broken to freeze?

Snowflakes drift through the nontranslucent sky

The topiary blankets in white ash

Why do I have the need to satisfy?

My dynamism is starting to clash

The blossoms generate a wonderful smell

The greenery starts to take over the area

I'm ready to come out of my lone shell

This is my time to develop my idea

The flare of the heat beats on the surface

I shall be the one to motivate justice

The subject of Shakespearean sonnets can be about almost anything, but it often revolves around the subjects of romantic love and earthly immortality. The structure of the sonnet is 14 lines written in iambic pentameter with three heroic quatrains and a heroic couplet. Each quatrain has its own theme that has a build-up to the final couplet.

The sonnet that I wrote has a build-up with a person's confidence with the comparison of the seasons. In the first quatrain, the colored leaves are referring to autumn, the season of transition. The line, "How did I become so broken to freeze?" is a transition to the next quatrain about winter, the season of hibernation.

The sonnet goes on with the season of spring, the season of rejuvenation. The lines, "I'm ready to come out of my lone shell" and "This is my time to develop my idea" are the build-up to the heroic couplet. The final couplet is the conclusion and the appearance of a new thought.

The couplet, "The flare of the heat beats on the surface" and "I shall be the one to motivate justice" is a new thought of exuberance and confidence, which is associated with the season of summer. The reason why I chose this type of sonnet is that I find the comparison with nature and human growth rather fascinating since both have to do with progression and growing into something new.
