I love this poem or sonnet, I'm looking for another poem for his that can be compared to this one using 2 of the same literature terms, like (simile,metaphor,rhyme...)

  1. All of his sonnets use the same rhyme scheme. Sonnet 16 is good, and is kind of the opposite in meaning, since the "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day" poem is about death, more specifically the death of his son, Hamlet (after whom the play was named), and about fatherly love, whereas 16 (Let me not to the marriage of true minds) is more about  romantic love and life.


  2. "my mistresses eyes..." it's either number 108 or 138...somewhere in that general area, but it's more or less the antithesis to shall I compare thee to a summers day. Plus, it's just a lot of fun.
