Sonnet 29 Review

Sonnet 29's message and theme is that the man wishes to have what other men have.  He curses his fate whenever he thinks of what he wants.  He envies all types of men.  He wishes to have other mens' riches in hope.  He wants more friends also.  "Like him with friends posse'd".  He also wants to have the art of another man.  Later, as he remembers his love he realizes he would not want to change at all.

This message and theme could be considered true.  This theme is evident in many films.  In Teen, a girl wishes she could look different.  She wishes she was prettier and was alike all the other girls.  The main character tries changing herself but later realizes a boy likes her for who she was.  He liked her for who she used to be, before she changed herself.  She changed back to her old ways and saw how much happier she was when she accepted herself because she too loved this boy.

  3. I agree with what you said about Sonnet 29. I honestly don't know what I am suppose to comment about either, but I see this theme very popular in many movies like you and "rizzle frizzle drizzle" said. I guess what I don't understand is why go through all that trouble to mention everything only to say you love someone. I might be missing the point but I agree with what your saying Bri. :)

  4. I have never seen the movie Teen, but i did read Sonnet29. Everything you say is true, but the main idea of the poem is that even though he is depressed and lonely, he still has a girl that loves him and that can make him instantly happy, no matter what the circumstance is.
