Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May
And summer's lease hath all too short a date

imagery (the poet describes flowers shaking in the wind)

metaphor (to compare his love to a summer day)

personification (the wind yells at the newly budding flowers)

simile (to compare his love to a summer day)

symbol (summer's day symbolizes beauty)

Respuesta :

The poem uses symbolism (a summer day is a symbol of beuty), imagery (the poet describes flowers shaking in the wind) and simile (an explicit comparison, instead of an implict one which would be a metaphor). There is no personification, since the wind does not assume human qualities, and since the comparison is explicit it should be classified as a simile, not a metaphor.
