In reply to: Mrs. G. (for Mrs. Moya) :-) 's message, "SONNET #73 (STUDENTS PLEASE READ!)" on 20:19:31 03/11/03 Tue

>My Paraphrasing:
"You see me as the ending of a day or a season that was beautiful
And you see me as death that steals youth
But even as you know this, you still love me
And must leave me soon"

>1. He uses words and phrases like "yellow leaves, or none", like bare trees, and "shake against the cold", perhaps the chill autumn wind? He also talks about sunsets, which almost seems like a metaphor for fall, in that fall is the cold time after a warm and pleasant summer.
>
>2. Time and season are important in that he seems to write of their endings in this sonnet. The ending of a day, ending of summer, ending of a life, ending of a love. These writings seem to reflect how the endings of each of these times and season affect him, or how he can relate to them.
