What is the Shakespeare's poem that Nell likes in "It's a Boy Girl Thing"?

Question

There's this poem by Shakespeare in "It's a Boy Girl Thing" that Nell likes. It has the word "summer" in it if i'm not wrong. Actually, I'm not sure if its a poem or an excerpt from Romeo and Juliet. Can any kind soul tell me the poem/excerpt please? I really really like it!

Answer 1

I haven't seen "It's a Boy Girl Thing", but Shakespeare and summer immediately bring to mind Sonnet #18:

Shall 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 dimmed,

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed:

But thy eternal summer shall not fade,

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,

Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade,

When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st,

So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Is this the one you were looking for?
