<em>Sonnet 130</em> <em>" My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun"</em> was written by William Shakespeare. In this poem, Shakespeare mocks other artists for their exaggeration while describing their lover's beauty. He describes his loved one in a more realistic way - he compares her to a number of things, but notes that she has nothing in common with them.
