Write a Shakespearean sonnet about October on the James River in Richmond, Virginia.
The form:
Put a title on the first line as # Title, then the fourteen lines, with no blank lines between them and no other text before or after.
I will check the acrostic, the line count and the rhymes with a script, and read the meter out loud.
For golden miles the James runs bright and wide, And herons lift from Richmond's misty shore; Lamenting slow, the current seems to glide; Lingers the fog, and autumn whispers more. In copper dusk the hillside windows shine, Nocturnal mist enfolds the river's gold; Regard the boulders where the waters twine, In shadowed coves the slower water's cold. Canoes are drifting through the fading light, Her bridges hum a low October song, Majestic maples glimmer through the night, Of oak and ash the shadow stretches long. Now I behold the James October clear; Delight of autumn crowns the falling year.
