Poetry Literacy Devices: Question 1 1) The basic comparison is being made between beautiful hot summer days and Caesars death. This is pulling in a lot of detail of how days shine on. 2) The words being used in the poem of the feelings of the speaker are very dull and you can tell the person they are referring to be surely missed.

Question 2 1) The lines I found most memorable were lines 5, 7 and 12 from the speaker’s perspective; they are showing how much their friend will be missed. 2) Basically from “ love is not all “ well love always doesn’t last forever unless you’re lucky. Life doesn’t last forever as well, and for someone it ended short from the poems perspective. 4) To me, it looks like the speaker doesn’t believe in love. Every time love comes up, its not really threatened but it’s told in a way that he makes people understand he doesn’t like love. 5) Following the same structures, yes because they are both dealing with a death, but detail wise, I would diffidently say that sonnet 30 is more in depth and more heavy. 6) I do believe that poems, even songs convey attitudes about love. Love is a very super-stituious thing and not everybody can love and enjoy it. I guess it decides on the person whether or not love is real.
