My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;A Coral is far more red than her lips' red; B If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;A If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. B I have seen roses damasked, red and white,C But no such roses see I in her cheeks; D And in some perfumes is there more delightC Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.D I love to hear her speak, yet well I knowE That music hath a far more pleasing sound; F I grant I never saw a goddess go;E My mistress when she walks treads on the ground.F And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rareG As any she belied with false compare.

Haiku As the wind does blow Across the trees, I see the Buds blooming in May I walk across sand And find myself blistering In the hot, hot heat Falling to the ground, I watch a leaf settle down In a bed of brown. It’s cold—and I wait For someone to shelter me And take me from here. I hear crackling Crunch, of today’s new found day And know it won’t last So I will leave it At bay; and hope for the best This bitter new day
WHEW!!!!! • NOW---YOUR TURN!!!
