William Shakespeare (Known as The Bard of Avon)\n\nSonnet 29\n\nWhen, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,\nI all alone beweep my outcast state\nAnd trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries\nAnd look upon myself and curse my fate,\nWishing me like to one more rich in hope,\nFeatured like him, like him with friends possess'd,\nDesiring this man's art and that man's scope,\nWith what I most enjoy contented least;\nYet in these thoughts myself almost despising,\nHaply I think on thee, and then my state,\nLike to the lark at break of day arising\nFrom sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate;\nFor thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings\nThat then I scorn to change my state with kings.

Well, I tried but I need to know more about the lines in the poem.   Maybe you'll have better luck with these sites.\n\nhttp://www.bartleby.com/\n\nhttp://www.allexperts.com/user.cgi?m=4&expID=50938&catID=678\n\nhttp://www.online-literature.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12717\n\nhttp://www.thent.com/poetry.htm\n\nhttp://lii.org/search/file/poetry

Sonnet 18, "Shall I Compare Thee To A Summers Day" is a good starting place. If you like that passage, try "A Midsummer Night's Dream". \n\nhttp://www-tech.mit.edu/Shakespeare/midsummer/full.html\n\nBe warned. Shakespeare seemed to hide a lot in his writings. The Bard is bawdy.\n\nhttp://observer.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,,1739819,00.html\n\nAlso, for an easier read that is full of wit, sarcasm and humor, try Samuel Clemens aka Mark Twain. "Life On The Mississippi" is one of my favorite reads.

Hello, Kaleb,\n\nI was and am an English teacher. \n\nYou can start with the poem's theme. If it is about love or nature or whatever, what does it say? How does it make you feel? Does the author choose words that are happy or depressing (mood)?\n\nYou can talk about word choices, length and, if you know something of the author, you can take that approach. \n\nHere's an example:\n\nMy Beard (Shel Silverstein)\n\nMy beard grows to my toes\nI never wears no clothes\nI wraps my beard around my bare\nand down the road I goes.\n\nWhat is Silverstein doing here? He gives you an image (a naked man with a long beard) and creates humor. His words are simple as if the man is not educated. The poem is short, cute and simple--ideal for kids or those of us who love to laugh! Silverstein wrote songs, poems and all kinds of things and was a very private man. Maybe the "beard" of the speaker is Silverstein seeking privacy.\n\nThis is a short example. I wish you luck.\n\nFor further assistance, you can try owlenglish@purdue.edu. Not sure if the url is right, but I hope you get your paper done.\n\nGambatte (good luck)from Japan!

I love Sonnet 130!\n\nI like this site, too:\n\nhttp://www.shakespeare-online.com/sonnets/130detail.html\n\nIt has the poem paraphrased and analyzed.\n\nMore information, including quotes from other writers is at:\nhttp://members.aol.com/danieledg1/sonnets.html\n\nI hope Shakespeare's mistress had a good sense of humor and that she waited around for the end of the sonnet.

I agree that <http://www.100words.net/entry/read_member_batch.cfm?entry_member=Laura%20A%20Hill&entry_batch=November&entry_year=2003> is the only site that talks about this poem.  Don't try pinkmonkey.com and the other sites.  I couldn't find the poem comments in their results.
