William Shakespeare Sonnets
Sonnets are fourteen-line lyric poems, traditionally written in iambic pentameter - that is, in lines ten
syllables long, with accents falling on every second syllable, as in: "Shall I compare thee to a
summer's day?". Sonnets originated in Italy and were introduced to England during the Tudor
period by Sir Thomas Wyatt. Shake-speare followed the more idiomatic rhyme scheme of sonnets
that Sir Philip Sydney used in the first great Elizabethan sonnets cycle, Astrophel and Stella (these
sonnets were published posthumously in 1591). Sonnets are formal poems and consist of 14 lines (3
quatrains and a couplet) Poems may be accessed by clicking the above Poems link for texts of the
poems of William Shakespeare - Venus and Adonis, Rape of Lucrece, Lover's Complaint and Phoenix
and the Turtle
Sonnet 116 Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and
play around it everyday. He climbed to the treetop, ate the apples, and took a
nap under the shadow...
He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him. Time went by...the
little boy had grown up, and he no longer played around the tree everyday.
One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. "Come and play
with me,” the tree asked the boy.
"I am no longer a kid, I do not play around trees anymore"
The boy replied. But you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will
have money.
"I want toys. I need money to buy them." "Sorry, but I do not have money...
"The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left
happily. The boy never came back after he picked the apples. The tree was
sad. One day, the boy who now turned into a man returned. And the tree was
excited "Come and play with me" the tree said. "I do not have time to play. I
have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?
"Sorry”, But I do not have any house. But you can chop off my branches to
build your house. "So the man cut all the branches of the tree and left
happily.
The tree was glad to see him happy but the man never came back since then.
The tree was again lonely and sad. One hot summer day, the man returned
and the tree was delighted. "Come and play with me!" the tree said. "I am
getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. “Can you give me a boat?"
“Said the man”. "Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far awayand
be happy. "So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat.
He went sailing and never showed up for a long time. Finally, the man
returned after many year" Sorry, my boy. But I do not have anything for you
anymore. No more apples for you... "The tree said”. "No problem, I do not
have any teeth to bite" The man replied. "No more trunk for you to climb
on" "I am too old for that now" the man said. "I really cannot give you
anything... The only thing left is my dying root,” The tree said with tears. "I
do not need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years"
the man replied. "Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on and rest,
Come, come sit down with me and rest. "The man sat down and the tree was
glad and smiled with tears... This is you and the tree is………

A friend is like a shade tree
A long a summer way
A friend is like the sunshine
That makes a perfect day
A friend is like a flower
That's worn close to the heart
A friend is like a treasure
Which one will never part
- Cows have four stomachs
- Horses can sleep standing.
- A shark has to keep moving forward to stay
alive.
- The skin of lemon whitens your teeth and
help get rid of germs.
What do you do when the only person who can
make you stop crying is the person who made
you cry
