Question

Abel

Answer 1

Answer:

My skateboard is the thing that I most prize:

My sun, my moon, my stars. And it may be

Worn down and shabby-looking old device

But it's a first-rate vehicle you'll see.

Explanation:

A sonnet is a short poem that typically has iambic pentameter (a pattern of 10 stressed and unstressed syllables). In the most common type of Sonnet (Shakespeare style), the rhyme scheme tends to be ABAB, which is the one that Abel's sonnet has. The first two lines have already 10 syllables, so they are complete. The words "old device" (3 syllables) and "you'll see" (2 syllables) are added to the last two lines to complete the sonnet and maintain the same rhyme scheme.
