1.meter:iambic pentameter
rhyme scheme:ABAB CDCD EFEF GG (basically,three quatrains and a couplet)
2.Shakespeare wrote about the beauty of nature to describe the inevitable mortality of beauty.In contrast to the evanescent nature of summers,the beauty of the young man,in the poet's eyes,is eternal.
3.Beauty of nature is transient since everything will eventually wither in nature.However,beauty can be preserved in the form of art,such as poems.People can still appreciate the beauty in a poem long after its subject died.Therefore,beauty in art transcends death.
4.I would have more pessimistic thoughts with respect to the relationship between the beauty of nature and that of a person.My opinions are exactly opposite to that of Shakespeare's.I feel that beauty of a person will wane as the person grows older or worse it will end when the person dies.Yet fresh flowers shall bloom every spring to replace the withered ones.There is a continuation of life in nature.Consequently,I think that the beauty of nature is more endurable since it surpasses human frailties.
