Shakespeare shows comparison between summer and the person he’s writing to by saying “shall i compare thee to a summers’s day?” this tells me that Shakespeare thinks the person is as beautiful as summer. “Sometime to hot the eye of heaven shines” this is a metaphor meaning that the “eye of heaven” is the Sun in the sky. The line “And often his gold complexion dimmed” this metaphor means that the Sun is being clouded. “But thy eternal summer shall not fade” this metaphor by Shakespeare means that the person’s beauty will never fade.

My iambic penetameter
The neighbors had a good relationship,
They were best friends and it was very true,
Their names were Mr. Nick and Mr. Lee,
They worked in unison and harmony,
We need to talk said Mr. Lee sadly,
What is the matter Lee said Mr. Nick,
I am quite sad with how things art with thee,
Why do you think this my lovely Lee,
And this is how their friendship came to be,
They were happy and so will Nick and Lee,
Became the friendship anyone could dream,
They both looked at each other with a beam.
