D. Time changes all aspects of life

Explanation:

Shakespeare in Sonnet 60 describes the changes that come with time. In making these changes, the poet makes comparisons with nature. He compared the passage of time with the waves and tides which rush to replace each other. He also compares human life to the beautiful rise of the sun and its subsequent fall.

In Mower's Song, the poet also has strong ties with nature which are soon overshadowed by the presence of a girl. In time, he forgets about the grasses but they seem to be doing well without him who is now smitten by the girl's love. These two poems show that time changes all aspects of life.
