What about Sonnet 18: Shall I compare thee to a Summer's day!?

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:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee!.

This is an easy one!.!.!.he says that in his eyes she will be eternally beautiful, so much so that even Death will not brag about taking her from the world in the end!.
