Answers
'Not Marble Nor The Gilded Gold'/ Sonnet 55 written by Shakespeare conveys the message that poetry outlives statues and gold plated monuments. Status and gilded monument can't stand the test of time that has a ravaging effect. Hence, the purpose of the people who erect them is lost. On the contrary, poetry makes the person live in the hearts of the reader forever as the same would be read year after year for generations.

The message conveyed in this poem is that people think that they will be remembered by all if they build monuments of their own. But that's not true. Monuments fade over time.
The thing which actually is worth remembering, according to the poem, is literature. You can destroy monuments, but you cannot destroy someone's writings. Writings pass down from generations to generations. Literature is far more valuable than these gold or marble statues. This is because unlike monuments, literature never fades away.
Hope this helps!!
