Answer: Writing holds the power to immortalize a writer forever.

Explanation:

Shakespeare starts this poem by addressing someone he deems "more lovely and more temperate” than summer. Summer is portrayed as "too short a date,” meaning its beauty is fading, while the beauty of whoever is being addressed “shall not fade.”

Shakespeare is revealed to be addressing the poem itself when he writes:

“When it eternal lines to time thou grow’st.” Furthermore, he highlights the power writing has to provide a cultural legacy when he claims “So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, / So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.”

Use the idiom "lift the spirits" in a sentence. *

Alchen [17]

One good way of making use of an idiom in a sentence is:

The talk given to use by the principal did a lot to lift the spirits of the students.

The idiomatic phrase "lift the spirits" shows that a person who was previously sad or depressed had that mood changed and is now much happier than before.

With this in mind, we can see that this shows that words, encouragements, rewards, etc can help to lift the spirit of a person in any situation.
