I'm not exactly sure what you mean by my take on it, but here's what I think Shakespeare is trying to say in this poem.
In my opinion, this poem is mostly about how great he thinks his poetry is. People usually think it's about the woman he's talking about, but I think is just as much about the poetry. After all, what is it that gives life to her, that makes her immortal? It is the fact that he has written this poem about her. So it's his poetry, not something about her, that is going to make her immortal.
Other than that, I would just say that I really like the poem. I think his way of comparing her to the summer's day and all the things he says about how she is better are quite clever.
