XVIII

(Sonnet 18)

hall I compare thee to a summer's
day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.

Sonnet 18.
I choose this poem, because was written by William Shakespeare, who I have admired all my life, was a English poet and playwright, his sophisticate and romantic way to describe all the things, made him one of the most famous poets.
In this poem he compares the spring with summer's day. How we can feel the transition of spring and the hot days in the summer and how the sun shines and spread out through the fields.
