I need to write a one line iambic pentameter...
an iambic pentameter is a
-10 syllable poem, and every pair of 2 syllables has to have 1 hard syllable and 1 soft syllable
- only need to be 1 line, and it doesnt need to make perfect sense, but has to have a general idea
-it can be about anything as long as it is school appropriate

...i know how to write these, but cannot think of anything!!!

heres is an example my teacher gave, its not words, but the syllables are write and stuff: Ta tum ta tum ta tum ta tum ta tum.

I just remembered, Shakespeare's sonnet 18 (XVIII) is made of iambic pentameters...and that line from romeo and juliet..where its like the light through yonder window breaks, and juliets a sun or whatever...those are iambic pentameters too.

please help!

sorry this was so long..
it has to sound good....but also like something an 8th/9th/mayb 10th grader would write....i cant thik of anything!!!
