Shakespeare Sonnet One

Shakespeare Sonnet One


FROM fairest creatures we desire increase,
That thereby beauty's
rose might never die,
But as the
riper should by time decease,
His tender
heir might bear his memory:
But thou, contracted to thine own
bright eyes,
Feed'st thy light'st
flame with self-substantial fuel,
Making a
famine where abundance lies,
Thyself thy
foe, to thy sweet self too cruel.
Thou that art now the world's fresh
ornament
And only herald to the
gaudy spring,
Within thine own
bud buriest thy content
And, tender churl, makest waste in
niggarding Pity the world, or else this glutton be,
To eat the world's due, by the
grave and thee.


Shakespeare's "Sonnet One" describes the importance of reproduction. It shows how it is in the responsibility of the does who have the chance to give birth and continue the human raise. "His tender heir might bear his memory" meaning that he wants a a child to represent his legacy.
