  13. I am not sure if you (The Teachers!!!) meant to do a sentence OF the poem or a sentence ABOUT the poem!!!??? Anyway I think I will do them seperately:
    1. A sentence OF the poem! or even at least a line or 2!!!

    But thy eternal summer shall not fade
    Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;

    Now 1 ABOUT the poem!!!

    I think the poem is actually really clever and how Shakespeare discribed her but did not use her name also how you could just imagine her if you use all the adjectives almost like she is standing in front of you!!!

    See you all tomorrow!!!

  16. The sonnet asks a question: โ€œShall I compare thee to a summerโ€™s day?โ€

    The poem goes on to compare her to a “summer’s day” but explains that she is even more lovely than a “summers day”. She is โ€œmore lovely and more temperate.โ€

    Summerโ€™s days can be windy and can have โ€œrough windsโ€ and the the sun,โ€œthe eye of heaven,” often shines โ€œtoo hot.”

    And summer doesn’t last very long and autumn comes too fast, as โ€œevery fair from fair sometime declines.โ€

    Finally, Shakespeare explains that her beauty will last forever, โ€œThy eternal summer shall not fade”.

    He tells us her beauty will last forever and never die because it’s in the poem, which will last forever; it will live โ€œas long as men can breathe or eyes too see.”
