What is a sonnet cycle?
A Sonnet Cycle is a set of sonnets that usually tell a story (often a love story of some kind). In English the two first sonnet cycles were Philip Sidney's Astrophel to Stella - which tells the story of Astrophel's love for Stella - and Samuel Daniel's Delia, which is very similar. Astrophel and Delia don't have much of a plotline (there is a faint one, if you read carefully), but W S Blunt's Esther has a clear story to tie the sonnets together (it is probably a heavily fictionalised account of his affair with Catherine Skittles Walters). A group of sonnets which share a common theme, but don't tell a story, is often called a Crown of Sonnets. If the unifying factor is a story of some kind, Sonnet Cycle is the preferred term. But many critics use Crown of Sonnets and Sonnet Cycle interchangeably (and few contemporary poets write either).

Summary on sonnet 29 - Millay?
this sonnet is about love and the sonnet is... pity me not because the light of day at close of day no longer walks the sky pity me not for beauties passed away from field to thicket as the year goes by pity me not the warning of the moon, nor that the ebbing tide goes out to sea. nor that a mans desire is hushed so soon, and you no longer look with love on me. this have i known always: love is no more than the wide blossom which the wind assails, than the great tide that treads the shifting shore, strewing fresh wreckage gathered in the gales, pity me that the heart is slow to learn when the swift mind beholds at every turn

Analysis of sonnet 34 by spenser?
Spenser's sonnet cycle, The Amoretti, shares in most of the sonnet cycles in its subject matter: a poet wooing in every possible way a Lady. Yet, Spenser's is somewhat different in that the Lady of the poem is not taken-it is not the classic courtly love narrative. She does play hard to get, so Spenser can engage in some of the courtly love motifs. The difference is that the sonnet cycle ends with the poet and the lady marrying. The final poem is an epithalmion, which is a poem in celebration of marriage.Spenser's sonnets are, well, sweet, in the somewhat lovely and simple way in which he presents a "verbal picture." Each sonnet has a very clear, central metaphor that he develops. Therefore, his sonnets can be nice for close reading and interpreting for a paper.SONNET 34In this sonnet, Spenser uses another metaphorical "picture." This time, the picture the poet presents is himeslf as a ship lost at sea without his lover's love. Without his lover, he has no "star, that wont with her bright ray/ Me to direct," in other words, without her he has no guiding star, or north star. He has no compass to help him through "a storme." By line 11, he utters words of "hope," which is the important Protestant word in prayer. Meanwhile, as he hopes for her return, he must continue on, lost in a storm. Note also how we saw the image / metaphor of an individual lost at sea as far back as Anglo-Saxon poetry.
