Skillfully illustrated, I hope u mention the full structure of a sonnet. Like the subject matter is composed of 14 lines and those 14 lines are divided into 2 parts, part1 presents the the theme and raises an issue or even doubt and the 2nd part resolves the problem.

SONNET 93

Oh! Sheila's sheen of sheer silk sheets outshone
Sunshines with shock that shivered, shuddered, shook.
The shale mounts showed the shoulder she'll cry on
At shingly shores she'll shoot her shining look
To ships that sheered off shoals of shame she'll shout
Her shimmer shifts their shapes . If shards were she
She'd shatter shackles she'd worn, shambling out
And share her sharp sword, sheath and shield with me .
On shells where she's lived shellac she can shed
From showers shelter she'll take, shorn like sheep
And shun her shuttered shack and shabby bed .
My sugar shuts her shy eyes shamming sleep .
I'm sure that shortly should stars shine like Sheila
No shows of shade and shadows shall conceal her!
