The love sonnet is comparing a girl or woman to a summer's day.
The sonnet starts by Shakespeare asking himself whether he should compare his beloved to a summer's day, and then proceeds by saying that she is even more lovely than that.
He states that although there are rough winds at the beginning, which could symbolize some misunderstandings, or negative conversations,and although summer is short and at times the heat may feel torturous to bare, or that the sky is covered by clouds and summer may fade,
Shakespeare expresses that his girl will never lose her beauty. she will never be overcome with Death and even though she may get wrinkles when she grows old, as long as men can breath and see, she will stay alive. It is almost saying that she is turned immortal because she will live forever.
