I wrote the following as a sample of what can be done in 20 minutes. I wouldn't suggest turning this in, but hopefully, it can show you how relatively easy and fast it can be to do one of your own.
Sample Sonnet
D-elight in using what is not your own!
O-ppose the toil required to earn a grade;
Y-et work much harder than you would alone,
O-utsourcing poems that are ready-made.
U-nless your fearful mind decides to be
R-esponsible for what you may attain,
O-ne sonnet begged in haste for all to see
W-ill in your life cause much more grief than gain
N-ot satisfied with putting forth your best
P-ropels you toward that empty state in life,
O-f which you’ve seen so many fail the test
E-nveloped in their shame and endless strife.
M-y hopes are with you as you spend this night
S-ucceeding with this task that’s yours by right.

Alone at night, in my room
staring quietly at my walls,
like a mummy in a tomb -
until finally restless slumber calls.
Fighting fitful dreams of woe
I sail upon a nightmare river.
Knowing not where I will go,
but thinking of it makes me shiver.
Are there no end to these mad dreams?
No stopping this twisted reality?
But maybe nothing is as dire as it seems,
just a fleeting world of fantasy.
And with just a few more troubled sighs,
I finally sleep peacefully, just before it's time to rise.

While this, a composition of my own
Will not suffice for purposes you post,
Your bleak request for help out here, you've thrown,
Thus my response: I'll be your sonnet host.
I doubt this sonnet you will want to use
For if you do not edit this at all
Your teacher can -- and will -- see through the ruse,
And from her grace (or his grace) you will fall.
A sonnet has 3 quartiles, that is true.
Yet each line has a feature that's unique.
Pentameter Iambic must ensue
For it to be a sonnet, so to speak.
Your homework for you I cannot complete,
But write your own, and then you will not cheat!

Anything you copy from this site is "off the internet" and can easily be discovered by your teacher by typing in a few words on google.

lol if I gave you one I wrote, it's still something thats not of your own creation.
It's difficult as hell to write a sonnet. I spent like 30 minutes just editing an old one I'd already done. Have fun with that.

I don't want to sound preachy, but you REALLY shouldn't be asking us for your homework. The are real consequesnces for this type of thing. Do the right thing, and write it on your own.
Good luck
