Okay, this is my sonnet for English class, excuse the Christmas theme. The rhyming is fine, but my iambic pentameter is completely awful I know. I really, really need help with it like I need my poetry professionals help! I've spent HOURS trying to fix the stressed and unstressed syllables and I'm like crying lol. This is due tomorrow and it is literally awful. If you can just help me add in or delete unneeded syllables or tell me words I need to change. THANK YOU EVERYONE<333

The Christmas Spirit
To give instead of needing to receive
To wish on bright stars gleaming high above
All the children just looking to believe
Most importantly, the spirit is love.

And cookies, candy, tinsel, Santa’s gloves,
Stockings hanging and nine reindeer flying
Red, green, silver, presents galore, turtledoves
Happiness and smiles are undying
Homes are filled with the luscious Christmas scents
Children caring most about their behavior
Parties, pageants, other holiday events,
Let us all rejoice the birth of our Savior!

It’s the Christmas spirit to remember
All through the year, not just in December.
And I'm really sorry to be asking for homework help...I don't usually like it when people don't do their own work. Even if you help with just one stanza I'll love you.
