We have no idea what Shakespeare liked to do when he was a child.
William Shakespeare did not write traditional epic poems like those of Homer or Virgil, but he did create long narrative poems that exhibit epic qualities. His two major narrative poems, "Venus and Adonis" and "The Rape of Lucrece," explore themes of love, desire, and tragedy, showcasing his poetic prowess. While not epic in the classical sense, these works reflect his ability to engage with grand themes and storytelling.
Yes, he was an actor also and a businessman, buying and managing a number of properties. Even as a writer, he is more famous for his plays than his poetry although most (but certainly not all) of his plays are in blank verse.
"William Shakespeare and the Globe" sounds like the title of an essay.

To cite a Shakespeare sonnet in MLA format, you would typically reference it as part of a collection. For example: Shakespeare, William. The Complete Sonnets and Poems. Edited by Colin Burrow, Penguin Classics, 2002. If you are citing a specific sonnet, include the sonnet number in your in-text citation, like this: (Shakespeare 18).

He wrote two long narrative poems, Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece, 154 sonnets and a handful of other poems. A couple of books of poetry were published even in his own time which attributed poems to him which certainly were not by him (like Marlowe's Passionate Shepherd poem), so there is a group of poems that are somewhat iffy.
