hey y'all my teacher read this poem 2 us 2day. isn't it funny?
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips' red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. I have seen roses damask'd, red and white, But no such roses see I in her cheeks; And in some perfumes is there more delight Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. I love to hear her speak, yet well I know That music hath a far more pleasing sound; I grant I never saw a goddess go; My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground: And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare As any she belied with false compare.
By shakespeare, can u believe it? i didn't think he wrote anything interesting.

Whoa, coolio! It's reassuring to know that he can write non-mushy, Romeo/J stuff! ;D
