Romanticism and The Place Poem

After our discussion about Romanticism, Tintern Abbey, Wordsworth and the places you have found profoundly moving, take on this creative writing challenge:

The Place Poem
- 14 lines (a sonnet of any style at all)
- free verse or try a rhyme scheme
- describe how the place is beautiful and how it moves you
- include the following figurative devices: simile, repitition, personification, alliteration
- remember to include an evocative title
