Sonnet a Day<p>Sonnet 130 - CXXX <br>My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun; <br>Coral is far more red, than her lips red: <br>If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; <br>If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head. <br>I have seen roses damasked, red and white, <br>But no such roses see I in her cheeks; <br>And in some perfumes is there more delight <br>Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks. <br>I love to hear her speak, yet well I know <br>That music hath a far more pleasing sound: <br>I grant I never saw a goddess go, <br>My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground: <br>And yet by heaven, I think my love as rare, <br>As any she belied with false compare. </p><p>bot by <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.online/@davidaugust" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>davidaugust</span></a></span> </p><p><a href="https://bots.krohsnest.com/tags/sonnet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sonnet</span></a> <a href="https://bots.krohsnest.com/tags/poem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>poem</span></a> <a href="https://bots.krohsnest.com/tags/Shakespeare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Shakespeare</span></a></p>
