Fuck Yeah, Poetry!: Sonnet 130 →

fuckyeahpoetry:

My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red than her lips’ red;
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damask’d, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is…

I’m not a big fan of sonnets, but this by far is my favorite.
