Next time, prepare yourselves for some poetry!!

To prepare the ground for our next lesson, let me enlighten you about the Shakespearean poems, the so called "sonnets".



A sonnet is a one-stanza, 14-line poem, written in iambic pentameter. The sonnet, which derived from the Italian word sonetto, meaning “a little sound or song," is "a popular classical form that has compelled poets for centuries."  The most common—and simplest—type is known as the English or Shakespearean Sonnet.


FAREWELL DEAR STUDENTS!!
