Hello, name is L Oquence, this is only the 2nd poem I've wrote. I'm a rapper first and a poet second, so I tend to use a lot of multisyllabic rhyme schemes. 
The Roman Sonnet (EDIT ONE)
From humble beginnings the mightiest rise,
Fresh like a forest that’s absent of cinders,
They are so anxious; providing demise,
Learnt code of honour, they aim to die victors.
Rigour and vigour is tested and learned,
Called into Gaul, then they wait for the dark,
Watch as the soldiers progress and emerge,
Do as they’re told lest they face up to Mars!
Barbarians rise and the war trumpet calls,
Orcus has spoken for those who oppose,
The judge uncontested and he’s trumping all,
Aquilo leaves every man froze in his bones!
The lesson is learned, tested; confirmed,
Believe in the legion or rest in an urn!

ORIGINAL POEM
Quote:The Roman Sonnet
From humble beginnings, the mightiest rise.
Valiant. Vigour. Forest absent of cinder.
They all are so anxious to provide a demise.
Must learn the code of honour. Aim to die victors.
Rigourous diligence is tested and learned quick.
Soldiers called to Gaulle, and they are waiting for dark.
Vigilant generals, direct the emergence.
Soldiers do what they’re told, lest they face up to Mars.
Barbarians rise, and then the war trumpet calls.
Orcus has spoken now for those who oppose.
His judgement uncontested, and it’s trumping all.
Aquilo’s wind leaves the wild froze in their bones.
The lesson is learned, and it is tested; confirmed
Believe in the legion; lest you rest in an urn!
