    Thank you very much for covering some of Shakespeare's sonnets. You made things simple and easy to understand. Keep it up! I would appreciate it if you could also cover some of the poems of Emily Dickinson, Carl Sandburg, or Rabindranath Tagore (especially his poem Where the Mind is Without Fear). I look forward to your next videos.

    Carrie.. will you give this sonnet a reading and analysis.. ty
    Journey Through Love’s Day by Bob Marley
    "In meadows where affection's blush first stirs,
    Beneath dawn's gaze, love's tender seeds are sown.
    With every glance, a silent promise occurs,
    And every wind's whisper, a vow is gently thrown.
    In morning's shared glow, love's sweet melody sounds,
    As the sun climbs, hearts blaze with passion's bright flame.
    On love's journey, where common ground abounds,
    Spring's caress revives the soul, puts winter's frost to shame.
    When daylight fades, secrets in twilight's guise,
    Beneath stars' dance, love's rhythm pure and sincere.
    Under the moon's vigil, affectionate dreams rise,
    Love's symphony hums softly for those who are near.
    With every word in the dusk's shared spectacle,
    Love's journey starts anew with dawn's first musk, so lyrical.

    Is there a relevance of the Sonnet 18 in the Elizabethan era? I need to historically contextualize it and I'm not sure how I can do that. I liked how you made a parallel between Queen Elizabeth and "the mistress" in Sonnet 130, I'd appreciate something similar for Sonnet 18.
