Shall I compare thee to a spring day? <br />Thou art more charming and more elegant: <br />Rough winds do shake the blossom buds, <br />And spring flowers hath all too short of a story: <br />Sometimes too wet for the eyes to see clearly, <br />And often its texture and vein are discolour; <br />And from fair to fair its elegance has darken, <br />By chance or nature’s changing course untouched; <br />But thy endless radiance shall not decline <br />Nor lose thy possession on thy spring charm; <br />Nor death shall crow about thou in its dusk, <br />When in eternal canto thou will sprout: <br />So long as creatures can inhale and eyes can observe, <br />So long as this exist and this gives life to thee<br /><br />Jeffrey Liminsang<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shall-i-compare-thee-to-a-spring-day/
