In the poem, "Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's day?", the author, which is Shakespeare, is writing about how much he loves a woman. It is a love poem and a very formal and old one. If I was the speaker's beloved, if I was the one that the author is talking about, I think I will have many feelings together, and in a very complicated form. At first, I will feel shocked because someone just wrote a poem for me, and then I will feel confused because it won't be easy to understand for me. But then I will feel flattered and happy that someone actually wrote a poem to prove how much he loves me. At last, I will feel confused and kind of angry because of the language he used. So I will have a lot of feelings together. And this is my response:
Dear my love,
Thank you so much for spending your time to write this poem to me. I am very flattered about it. Although I understand your hard work and your true heart and feelings for me, I am not very happy about it. It is very confusing and hard for me to understand the language you used. And also, I wouldn't want to be like a summer day. I don't want to shine on people until they are annoyed by me. I am also a little bit irritated by your language.
Sincerely,
Your love.
