Hey everyone my professor assigned a one sentence summary on a poem by Andrew Marvell call "To Coy His Mistress." I need help with grammar errors and punctuations. I also need to make this summary creative and if I could use better wording. Thanks!This is my summary:
"To His Coy Mistress"

In Andrew Marvell's poem, "To His Coy Mistress," a man persuades a woman to have sex with him by throwing an excuse at her saying how time is precious to be wasted, and he is also afraid the woman will age and won't be beautiful.

Any suggestions?

Wow, this is fun! but to write the most beautiful poem we can possibly imagine, we first need to know the man's age. Depending on his age it will be one kind of poem or another. Huh? [:^)]

His age is not given in the poem, or the woman's age is not given either, but we assume she is probably in her early 20's since she's still young.
