William Shakespeare Poems - Beautiful Love Poetry

Read by Shane Morris
This video aims to bring the sonnets: 18, 29, 116 and 130, of William Shakespeare, to life. William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet, and actor who is widely regarded as one of the greatest writers in the English language and one of the most important figures in world literature. He was born in 1564, and died in 1616.
Sonnet 18 is one of the most famous and beloved sonnets written by William Shakespeare. Throughout the sonnet, Shakespeare uses vivid imagery to convey the beauty of the person he is addressing. He compares them to a "summer's day," but then goes on to explain why they are actually more beautiful and desirable than anything found in nature.
Sonnet 29 by William Shakespeare is one of the most well-known sonnets of the 154 that he wrote. The speaker begins by expressing his sadness and despair, feeling alone and outcast from society. Finally, in the couplet, the speaker acknowledges that the love he shares with his beloved is enough to make him feel as though he is "wealthy" and "contented." He recognizes that his love is a gift from heaven, and he feels blessed to have it. In this way, the sonnet ends on a hopeful note, with the speaker finding solace in the love he shares with another person.
Sonnet 116 by William Shakespeare is a classic love sonnet that presents the idea of true love as an unchanging force that is not swayed by external circumstances. Shakespeare argues that true love is not subject to the whims of time or circumstance, and that it persists even in the face of adversity.
Sonnet 130 by William Shakespeare is a poem that subverts traditional love poetry by rejecting exaggerated comparisons and clichéd metaphors in favor of a more realistic and honest portrayal of his mistress. Instead of praising her with over-the-top comparisons to natural beauty or otherworldly beings, Shakespeare describes her with human qualities, acknowledging her imperfections and flaws.
The poem in this video is narrated by Shane Morris (an award winning voice actor). We took care to edit the audio as perfectly as we can.
We believe that there is wisdom in these historic texts. We are very hesitant in creating video's with different moving backgrounds, because we believe it might contradict the wisdom that is displayed in the text. We hope you appreciate the effort!

[@modernape9878]

Im sure you have Shakespeare level writers in your nayive tongue that we wouldnt be able to grasp fully! That's the beauty of language The good news about shakespeare is his genius goes beyond language. I think he wrote about every conceivable human emotion. And that transcends language :)

[@HamzaBektas-yi7ke]

I'm sure a fair amount of native speakers don't understand as well

[@UoUo-dh2zt]

You have not seen Arabic poetry like Al-Mutanabbi

[@birdyjireh6391]

Sometimes I forget this man was a genius but poems like these give me a reality check. I especially love the third poem's realistic tone.

I write poems and I love Williams Shakespeare poems and plays he wrote

[@idkwhattoputmynameto703]

Out the door at night , Not a soul in sight , He strolled passed the cemetery on the hill, Walked on by high as a kite, Onto the coast he strolled weather was bleak ,cold , and still… Rain seeped down , wind slapped up off his coat , He thought for a second to chill, As he did he caught eye to a couple who was sat on the hill.

Damn I have learned this without knowing anything in school days

[@apollocobain8363]

1:16 Amazing that these were published after Shakespeare's death, as he intended. He believes that the sonnets are his only chance to immortalize the fair youth, the dark lady and himself. In Sonnet 72 he tells us "my name be buried where my body is." He was right!

[@user-lf9gv4vf9w]

I have wrought too great a burden on many a soul, Pain and suffering that my deeds didst unfold. The vastness of the anguish that my future might hold, Is beyond my ken, and my presence would be a toll. My feeble health doth render me powerless to act, Neither read nor write, do I possess the tact. Grieve not too much, nor lay blame on any, Fate hath dealt its hand, and its decree is many. Cremate me, I beseech thee, and lay me to rest, With a tiny tombstone, by my abode, at best. 'Tis an ancient thought, yet one that doth appeal, To fade into oblivion, and let the earth's bosom heal.

William Shakespeare is the most famous person who wrote poems.

[@kingtheevil2443]

There is a lot better than him.

[@noledelgado8111]

The only one error I find in this poem is the narrator's pronunciation of "fade." He pronounced it like the ee's in feed. It should be pronounced like the "a" in spade.

[@SimonPaxton_VO]

I think sonnet 27 is my favourite love poem, as the restless sleeper, beset by worry, takes a journey to their beloved to calm their soul - kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6LNc6euo7GrkM0

[@tellitasitis]

Poem using Shakespeare Poems. Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate, they say. For in thy eyes, the beauty of the world I see, And in thy heart, a love that's true and free. When I consider everything that grows, Haply I think on thee, and my heart glows. For in thy presence, all things seem more fair, And life's troubles, seem easier to bear. My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun, Yet in her gaze, I find a love that's won. For in her imperfections, I see her true beauty, And in her heart, a love that's pure and duty. All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players, They have their exits and their entrances, and leave behind their layers. For life is but a fleeting moment, a brief candle that burns bright, And in the end, we are but shadows, fading into the night. So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee. For in these words, a love that's true and strong, And in our hearts, a memory that will last long.

There’s a theory that Shakespeare is bisexual and he wrote the summer’s day sonnet for a man. I wonder if it’s just a theory or something
