Default Help with a sonnet

I have to write a sonnet for my Lit class...

I thought it would be neat to come here, and have each person submit one line for my poem......if the first person would please submit the first line....and the following people each add on a line

here are the guidelines for a sonnet

written in Iambic Pentameter(5 sets of one stressed and one unstressed syllabul..basically just make sure your line has 10 syllabuls)

each line has to ryme with the line 2 posts above....

For Example: Post 1:...................cat
Post 2:...................dog
Post 3:....................hat
Post 4:....................log
then a new quatrain starts and the rhyme scheme can start over

the first person can pick the topic as long as it is one of the 7 deadly sins

remember.......3 quartains...and one couplet....the ryme scheme changes for the couplet.....both lines in the couplet must rhyme
