This is a poem I had to write for English, based on Shakespheres poem Sonnet 18

Hope you enjoy!

Shall I compare thee to a crescent moon?

Thou art more wholesome, more bright, more alive.

Living mammals find hidden rest for noon,

And blinding darkness takes place of the sky;

Sometime the night creatures live scarce: away,

And still, the man of the moon hides his face;

And silently dusk dies and turns to day,

The feeling of season put in its place;

But thy sun dimm’d day wakes to a new morn,

Natural elegance gives way to grace;

Bright light arises to a day reborn,

Thou history pass this tale a duty;

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

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