Bird Acts On The Ground
504 wordsEmily Dickinson's poem "A Bird Came Down the Walk". is an excellent example of how poets use varying styles of rhyme and meter to bring a poem to life. Dickinson expertly uses meter to show how the bird acts on the ground and in the air. The rhyme scheme she uses changes in the poem to show the birds change in attitude. The poem is five quatrains long. In each stanza, except for the fourth, uses iambic trimeter in every line but the fourth line which uses iambic tetrameter. The fourth stanza use...

Third Stanza Of The Poem
1,017 wordsThis poem was very hard to make an argument for to tell what it means. The poem deals with the idea of depression, hurt, weighted choices, and death. It is the most uplifting of poems, but I don t think Emily Dickinson was trying to make it that way. She uses the idea of winter to represent darkness, the comparison of the weight of a choice the heft of Cathedral tunes. She uses a line, which states that there are internal differences to represent emotional not physical problems. She also say's t...

Poem In The First Two Quatrains
911 wordsA Critical Analysis of 'The Parting' by Michael Drayton By looking at a poem which has a specific form, for example the sonnet, consider to what extent its particular techniques enhance its meaning. The parting by Michael Drayton is a sonnet. It is a poem about the breakup of the relationship between the author and his partner. I feel that the meaning of the poem is greatly enhanced by its form, and for a variety of reasons. Firstly, because the sonnet is a very strict form, the author has to be...

Stanza Throughout The Whole Poem
380 wordsThe fly is caught in the web, along with a wasp. The fly's struggles simply transmit its location to the spider, who quickly overpowers and destroys the hopeless victim. The fly represents everyone who is not a wasp; the non-believer, the misled Christian, the Catholic, or the savage. Powerless against the devil, these creatures quickly fall prey without hope of rescue. Taylor shows that the wasp is a threat to the spider, while the fly is easier to trap and seize. The devil, which is the spider...

Second Line Of The Poem
991 wordsE.E. Cummings " anyone lived in a pretty how town' I first read this poem and I thought of love, two people in love. Anyone and no one are in love and that is what matters to them, to be in love with each other and with life. It involves the day, the night, and how the weather changes. The seasons revolve and the children grow up to become adults. As I read the poem I realized there were three sections to it. Which consist of anyone and no one, 'women and men' in line four, and the children. The...

Robert Frost Poem
624 wordsInterpretation of Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening First Response My first response to this poem was that it seemed simple. To me, the speaker is simply stopping by the woods on snowy evening and enjoying the peaceful scenery. His senses are heightened and he is taking in the sounds of the falling snow and the winter wind. However, he cannot ignore urgency that calls him to keep going. He wants to stay in the woods, but realizes how many miles he must travel before he can sleep for the night...

Sad Poem
497 wordsSaddest Poem Tow weeks ago one of my classmates has presented a poem from his culture, and I am sure that it's a Latin culture. The poem is called "Saddest Poem" written by Pablo Neruda who is as I understood one of the most famous Latinos poet. This poem was translated to English, even though it didn't lose its original structure. No one can argue about the main idea of this poem that it's a sad poem and we can clearly see that from the title. Neruda uses many of the poetry techniques to comple...

Keats's Ode On A Grecian Urn
681 words"More happy love! more happy, happy love!" (Keats, line 25). When one reads lines such as this, one cannot help but think that the poet must have been very, very happy, and that, in fact, the tone of the poem is light and filled with joy. However, this is not the case in John Keats's poem, Ode on a Grecian Urn. At first glance, the tone of the poem seems light and flowery. However, when one looks deeper into the poem to find its underlying meanings, one discovers that the tone of the poem is ver...

This poem has two meanings, the first about good things never last forever and the second about youth and innocence. Robert Frost's poem relates to the novel, the Outsiders in many ways. The first meaning is that good things do not last. That life may seem perfect when everything is going right, but this will not stay forever. Everything living is beautiful and every beautiful thing w...

Keats's Notion Of Writing Lines
1,765 wordsIn the poem, "Ode to a Nightingale", written by John Keats, the speaker attempts to use a nightingale as a means of escaping the realities of human life. Throughout the poem Keats gradually discovers the concepts of creative expression and the morality of human life. The speaker is in search of the freedom that the nightingale so elegantly sings about. The nightingale's song of freedom is an expression of pure joy, which is oblivious to anguish and suffering. It appears in the poem that Keats is...

Final Two Lines Of The Poem
1,172 wordsCritical Analysis Of "The Indifferent' By John Critical Analysis Of "The Indifferent' By John Donne Critical Analysis of "The Indifferent' by John Donne "The Indifferent' by John Donne is a relatively simple love poem in comparison to his other, more complicated works. In this poem, "he presents a lover who regards constancy as a ' vice' and promiscuity as the path of virtue and good sense' (Hunt 3). Because of Donne's Christian background, this poem was obviously meant to be a comical look at v...
