Sorry I thought I already posted this for last week... In english we are talking about the Shakespear's Julius Caesar. While personally I do not mind reading Shakespear as long as I can break the story down line by line. Breaking it down is more fun for me. This week I will be breaking down  a poem from Shakespear called Shall I compare Thee to A Summers day Sonnet 18

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? (Sonnet 18)

William Shakespeare, 1564 - 1616

1.Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?     Self explanitory
2.Thou art more lovely and more temperate.-You are more lovely and calm(temperate- less changing)       
3.Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,- When the rough winds come and shake you(like darling buds on plants in may)
4.And summer’s lease hath all too short a date. -And summers contract (the contract being the time summer is in season) is here such a short time(a date means of the year)
5. Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,- When it is to hot the sun shines(heaven shines)
6.And often is his gold complexion dimmed; - there are a lot of times when the sun gets hidden 
7. And every fair from fair sometime declines,- (fair to Shakespear meant pretty, gorgious, exelent and fun.) and every pretty face from fun ends
8. By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimmed;- by fate or just nature being nature ending(untrimmed meaning not sugar coated)
9. But thy eternal summer shall not fade,- The summer in you will not fade(comparrison of nature to you, lines 8 and 9)
10. Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,- and you will not loose the beauty you have
11. Nor shall death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,-No death or devil will bring you down (his being the devil)
12. When in eternal lines to Time thou grow’st.- You will never end and you flourish in eternity
  13.   So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,- as long as man are alive to witness your beauty
   14.  So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.- this poem is for you.

basically this is comparing everything in summer to you. Except you live longer then summer, and are better then summer.

To make up for this weeks post I am doing a ryhming poem that talks about Julius Caesar.(pattern is A, B, A,)

That be him that is so powerful and mighty,

He who manipulates for a kindgom,

While his people consider him unsightly,

Loved, Revierd and fear,

He was a man of much power;

T'was they who dislike and they killed with many a spear.

He was one who they would die for;

While they were one he would kill for...

That this caused a civil war.

While his people would wail and cry-

"Julius Caesar why leavest thou me?"

While he ruled up in the sky.
