I will not compare you to a summer’s day Summer is heat, humidity, and drought A disapproving sun burning the earth A dusty, weedy landscape fit only for snakes
Instead, you are a perfect autumn day A day of good old sweaters and leafy walks Invigorating winds all fresh from the north And inside, cups of cocoa and a merry fire
I will not compare you to a summer’s day Your autumn is far more lovely and temperate
