Homework 04/07/10

Paraphrase Sonnet 29

When I find myself thinking how I am poor with no riches

I pout for myself because I have naught what makes a man a man

I pray to heaven but heaven does not hear me

So I hate myself

I silently wish I was one of those rich

Wishing I looked like the man with unmistakable beauty and friends who acknowledge him

I hate myself for thinking these thoughts

But when I think of you and my melancholy drifts away

I then sing to the heavens for your unconditional love

And I would not change that even for the most riches
