After Us

AAFTER US In this poem, the poet uses a surplus of imagery to allow the reader to fully see what she is trying to get us to picture. In the first line, she talks about how rain, which can be destructive or helpful, is seeping into a room where books and other material things reside. In the lines to follow, she writes about how everything that flourished under the sun, turned away to try and find the light that they so desperately need. This shows the destructive side to rain because it paints the picture of a dark day with rain falling and silencing all activities that happen during the day. In the second paragraph, the poet writes about a portrait, which has sketches of boats and barns and this creates the image of a perfect utopia where everything is peaceful and nothing has disturbed it. The paragraph that follows this peaceful picture, is where the foreboding and evil rain begins to make its appearance again. She writes about how everything that was ever thought of or invented or t...

Neglect

NNeglect

In the sonnet "Disregard" by R.T. Smith, Smith writes in a passionate tone as he utilizes symbolism and an analogy to recount a story and pass on the difficulties of misfortune. The speaker interfaces his experience of losing an apple tree and the outcome of his experience to the lament and blame people go through when they think about their slip-ups and laments in the wake of losing a friend or family member. Upset on the grounds that the apple tree that he disregarded is presently gone, the speaker utilizes symbolism by inquiring as to whether what he will recollect will be "the fragrance of apple branches smoking in the wood oven" and afterward proceeds with his second thoughts saying " I ought to have hacked the dead appendages right on time." Through the speaker's considerations, he portrays the way toward adapting; we have positive recollections however we likewise consider what we fouled up to whatever we lost. Rather than confronting what has occurred, the speaker is discouraged as the person in question keeps on accusing oneself saying "I ought to have" various stuff, something that we will in general do when misfortunes of misfortune happen. The speaker says " yet I was excessively captivated by pear saplings, blossoms and the field, too inexperienced to even think about accepting that demise's unavoidable for any living being disliked, untended" showing how we become occupied by things throughout everyday life and afterward, when a person or thing that we once put resources into is detracted from us, it seems as though we can hardly imagine how it is truly conceivable that they are no more. Through symbolism and the general allegory of the tree being a lost adored one, the speaker can convey the battles that misfortune achieve and the trouble of figuring out how to adapt to its cruelty.

A Farewell

AA Farewell  Alfred Lord Tennyson’s poem “A Farewell” beautifully describes the fact that death is something which will come to everyone, be it rich or poor. No one on earth can escape death. We all feel that after we die people will be sad and mourn. Yes it is true that the people we love will be disheartened but their life will be the usual and the nature will also remain the same. Nature continues the way as though it was unaffected by our death. Rivulet for example at last merges into the river, becomes one with the river, similarly death which is a natural process makes us one with God. The line “Thy tribute wave delivers” reminds of a funeral which is carried out after the death of a person. The poem is expressed in a negative and depressing tone and expresses the fact that the moment an individual dies even his or her family is no longer interested in keeping the body with them. Lord Tennyson’s poem has a deep meaning because it explains the timidity of our existence. It exp...
