The poem reflect some physical characteristics of the person this is written for, for example when he wrote “darling buds of May” I think it refers to the person he is talking about; and when he wrote “Thou art more lovely and more temperate” I think that he refers psychologically”. The poem is a Shakespeare sonnet with the form A-B-A-B-C-D-C-D-E-F-E-F-G-G and it’s an iambic pentameter.
5. Maybe this Christmas It's Christmas time and Santa's here, Making the children smile But he's just a pedophile So you better watch your child. Christmas trees in every house Covered in shiny lights But they just turn brown and die, Or set your whole house on fire These are the reasons I hate the seasons, but imma give it a try.
Maybe this year I won’t be sad on Christmas Maybe I'll have a happy holiday. Replace my heart ache and my pain, With mistletoe and candy cane This Christmas, could go my way. Having fun with all your friends, Sippin on that eggnog, But it just looks like jizz All over your upper lips. House made out of ginger bread Cookies like Christmas trees Giving ya heart disease And type 2 diabetes. These are the reasons I hate the seasons, but imma give it a try. Maybe this year I won’t be sad on Christmas Maybe I'll have a happy holiday. Replace my heart ache and my pain, With mistletoe and candy cane This Christmas, could go my way. I've never seen reindeer fly I've never heard the sleigh bells ring I've never seen a snowman come to life I've never heard the angels sing But I hope, and I prey That maybe this Christmas day That'll change. Maybe this year I won’t be sad on Christmas Maybe I'll have a happy holiday. Replace my heart ache and my pain, With mistletoe and candy cane This Christmas, could go my way. Maybe this year I won’t be sad on Christmas Maybe I'll have a happy holiday. Replace my heart ache and my pain, Let's just dance the night away. This Christmas, is going my way. Just Dance with me. 6. About the song. The song is about a woman who hates Christmas because her couple died in this season. She is very sad but she wants to try to be happy in this Christmas. She sais bad things about Christmas, for example saying that Christmas trees will set your house on fire,
because she doesn’t like people being happy in Christmas when she is not. The part “Having fun with all your friends” is a description of what happens. The video is very important to understand what happens in the story because it helps to know that the boy died in a car accident, for example.
