1. Shall I Compare Thee To A Summer's Day? Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? --A--(10)-

Thou art more lovely and more temperate: --B--(10)-

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, --A--(10)-

And summer's lease hath all too short a date: --B--(10)-

Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines, --C--(10)-

And often is his gold complexion dimmed; --D--(10)-

And every fair from fair sometimes declines, --C--(10)-

By chance or nature's changing course untrimmed; --D--(10)-

But thy eternal summer shall not fade, --E--(10)-

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st; --F--(10)-

Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade, --E--(10)-

When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st: --F--(10)-

So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, --G--(10)-

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee. --G--(10)-

William Shakespeare

4. About the poem The poem is a comparison between one person and the summer.

The poem reflect some physical characteristics of the person this is written for, for

example when he wrote “darling buds of May” I think it refers to the person he is

talking about; and when he wrote “Thou art more lovely and more temperate” I think

that he refers psychologically”.

The poem is a Shakespeare sonnet with the form A-B-A-B-C-D-C-D-E-F-E-F-G-G and

it’s an iambic pentameter.

5. Maybe this Christmas

It's Christmas time and Santa's here,

Making the children smile

But he's just a pedophile

So you better watch your child.

Christmas trees in every house

Covered in shiny lights

But they just turn brown and die,

Or set your whole house on fire

These are the reasons I hate the seasons, but imma give it a try.

Maybe this year I won’t be sad on Christmas

Maybe I'll have a happy holiday.

Replace my heart ache and my pain,

With mistletoe and candy cane

This Christmas, could go my way.

Having fun with all your friends,

Sippin on that eggnog,

But it just looks like jizz

All over your upper lips.

House made out of ginger bread

Cookies like Christmas trees

Giving ya heart disease

And type 2 diabetes.

These are the reasons I hate the seasons, but imma give it a try.






I've never seen reindeer fly

I've never heard the sleigh bells ring

I've never seen a snowman come to life

I've never heard the angels sing

But I hope, and I prey

That maybe this Christmas day

That'll change.









Let's just dance the night away.

This Christmas, is going my way.

Just Dance with me.

6. About the song.

The song is about a woman who hates Christmas because her couple died in this season.

She is very sad but she wants to try to be happy in this Christmas. She sais bad things

about Christmas, for example saying that Christmas trees will set your house on fire,

because she doesn’t like people being happy in Christmas when she is not. The part

“Having fun with all your friends” is a description of what happens. The video is very

important to understand what happens in the story because it helps to know that the boy

died in a car accident, for example.
