Sonnet #52:

So am I as the rich, whose blessed key,
Can bring him to his sweet up-locked treasure,
The which he will not every hour survey,
For blunting the fine point of seldom pleasure.
Therefore are feasts so solemn and so rare,
Since, seldom coming in the long year set,
Like stones of worth they thinly placed are,
Or captain jewels in the carcanet.
So is the time that keeps you as my chest,
Or as the wardrobe which the robe doth hide,
To make some special instant special-blest,
By new unfolding his imprison’d pride.
Blessed are you whose worthiness gives scope,
Being had, to triumph; being lacked, to hope.

I chose this sonnet because when you read it, you assume he is talking about a woman, but if you read it again, you realize that he could be talking about a lot of things, anything that he considers a treasure. I think the fact that every person can interpret this sonnet to be about a different sort of treasure is very interesting. There are lots of similes in this sonnet; he compares a occasional feast to thinly placed stones and to captain jewels on a necklace. He also compares his treasure chest to a wardrobe in that they both hide something from view. I thought that the idea Shakespeare was trying to communicate, the fact that things are better in moderation, not in excess, is something I agree with. Also, I really like the couplet at the end, especially the last line; “Being had, to triumph; being lacked, to hope.” To me this means that even if you don’t have a treasure, there is still hope yet for one to come.

Laptop Giveaways

Intel has a great laptop giveway going on until the end of today. Nine laptops are being given away on different blogs. The odds of winning are … well there is still a pretty small chance of winning, but it is worth a try. You just need to write about the difference between back to school when you were a kid and now. This is the first year I’ve actually had a kid go to school, since we have always homeschooled until now. Check out http://www.blogher.com/special-offer-intel?page=12 and enter to win.
