Sir Thomas Wyatt and The Earl of Surrey brought the Petrarchan sonnet to England and with that an admiration for lyrical poetry. This had major consequences

    shards crunched beneath my feet‚ the blood dripped from my hair onto my awestruck face. This is all seemed so real‚ so completely real. I walked around the cars‚ examining the wreckage‚ my sight vibrating from the pure adrenaline rush. Here it was‚ Every 15 Minutes‚ and I was the drunk driver. Beer cans scattered around the pavement; every step I took felt like an eternity‚ a lurch through some kind of dark matter. I kept thinking “this didn’t actually happen‚ this didn’t actually happen‚” but‚ the experience

    Shakespeare’s 18th and 130th sonnets have similar messages‚ and yet manage to contrast one another entirely. Both sonnets discuss the uselessness of applying superlatives to the description of a person. The Bard’s 18th sonnet‚ “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day‚” addresses someone who Shakespeare feels is more beautiful and perfect than a summer day and that even the clearest skies and loveliest flowers are no match for his beloved. Sonnet 130‚ “My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun‚” also

    This love will be different and nothing will compare to this person. No poem nor song nor person could explain the feelings or love for that person. In Sonnet 130‚ Shakespeare wrote a sonnet about the person he loves and this love compares to no other. In most sonnets he has written he has compared beauty to the most beautiful things but this sonnet is different. He talks about her beauty but contrasted it from things that were beautiful.
