Sonnet Parody

I have to write one for my english class. The topics were drawn from a basket so I had no choice but to write about jell-o, but I was just wondering if you would give your opinions. I'm pretty sure I have the correct form, but I'm still wondering what you think

Shall I compare thee to a bowl of jello?
Thou art more green and jiggly,
all around you rough winds blow
which makes your surface wiggly

Sometimes too hot the sun shines above
and you melt onto the ground
though your beauty I'll never love
you continue to stick around

The scent of lime shall never fade
this my aching head doth know
oh how I long to trade you for
the flavors grape or mango

So long as I can breath and see
I'll stand by your side miserably


haha okay I think it stinks so please make some suggestions

Makes me want to go and hug a bowl of jello. Damn, I need a life!

Hey who needs more of a life... the person who wants to hug a bowl of jell-o, or the person who had to write the sonnet about it?

I found the poem to be rather entertaining.
Good work.
Now do a villanelle on poptarts.
Ready....GO!

Glory, how I love thee
Let me count the ways
You're a straight boy Adam fan and you write funny things like this. Rock on.

Oh wow.... that had me laughing for awhile. Very creative.
But if you think that's odd, I wrote a poem last year about a plaster emu figurine...
