    Love and Gavin Tyler Poem

    In the poem; "The Wisdom of Shelley" by George Elliot Clarke there is much imagery and symbolism used throughout the entire work. The author very rapidly sets the tone of the poem, as well as gives the reader hints of past major events in “Shelley’s” life. Immediately the mood of negativity is created. Everything that is presented to her is received by her in a different light. There is strong imagery based on the contrast. The author draws a picture in the reader’s mind, with his use of imagery in his poem. An example of an image drawn mentally by the use of descriptive words in the poem would be; “Like a late blizzard, You bust in our door, talkin' April and snow and rain,” This allows the reader to picture in their mind the very same image the author is imagining and writing about. By compairing the man to a “late blizzard” and saying that he busted in the door, leads to the fact that she, Shelley, does not welcome him or his love. Also, there are several symbols found in this poem. A few of these would be; “poems”, and “Roses got thorns”. Poems represent love and feelings, so when the man enters the house “litterin' the table with poems” he comes in expressing his emotions to her, yet with the use of the word “litterin’” she makes it sound like it’s a bad and fowl action he is committing. Finally, roses and thorns are a symbol which represents, the positive and negative of love. The rose is all about love, happiness and beauty. Whereas the thorns brings things back to reality, with the pain, and downside of love and a relationship. Clarke does an excellent job of incorporating and including much imagery and symbols in his…

    Real Cool Poem

    The speaker starts by telling the waves to "break, break, break" onto the rocks. He then says that his "tongue" cannot "utter" the thoughts that are within him. The narrator is not thinking very much; the thoughts "arise in" him naturally without any form of effort. The speaker thinks that it is good that the fisherman's kids are yelling and playing with each other. The speaker says it is good that the sailor is singing in his boat. Due to the sad mood of the poem the speaker seems jealous. The speaker sees great ships pass by and go to their port under a hill. There must be a hill over the shore. The speaker doesn’t seem distracted by the ships, because he just keeps on speaking. The speaker wishes he could touch some ones "vanish'd hand" and hear their voice again. I think the speaker is talking about a dead loved one. The speaker talks to the waves again and tells them to “Break, break, break,” but this time the waves break on the crags instead of the rocks; the…

    The definition of love is something that varies greatly among individuals. In E.E. Cummings’s poem “i carry your heart with me”, Cummings effectively conveys that true love is a powerful force that brings complete unity between two people through the use of various literary devices such as capitalization, point of view, form, and imagery to enhance the meaning of his poem.…

    First Poem for You

    • 793 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The Shakespearean sonnet “First Poem for You” has an iambic pentameter and consistent rhyme scheme. Every other line represents a true rhyme – the final accented vowels and all succeeding consonants or syllables are identical. For example the words “complete” and “neat” (Addonizio 1, 3). Every line of the poem has a basic stressed and unstressed syllable format, except the last line. The extension of the last line “but touch them, trying” implements a longer stress (14). I believe this has definite meaning to the structure of the poem. In addition, the final verse of the poem is the longest line. In relation to the word “trying”, I believe that the longer stress and length in the final line of the poem emphasizes the woman continuing to mend the relationship with her boyfriend. The theme of the poem is about love and desire, a woman who cares for her boyfriend seeks to mend the brokenness in their relationship.…

    The reader can first see this in the title, “i carry your heart with me”. Obviously he isn’t actually carrying his lovers’ heart in the literal sense. Instead the reader can understand that figuratively her presence and her love are always near. He feels it all the time. It 's within him, "i carry it in my heart." Cummings intertwined the denotations and connotations in his poem. He does this by the use of parenthesis throughout the poem. “i carry your heart with me(i carry it in my heart) i am never without it (anywhere i go you…

    The poem “Mothers” by Nikki Giovanni is about two states of mind. An adult dealing with the ups and downs of everyday life and a concerned child. This is shown by the use of opposite words. “Dark-light” and “pleasantries and unpleasantries.” Being a child, Nikki was trying to make sense of what was happening around her. She sees her mother sitting in a chair in a dark room upset her. Nikki is apparently a frightened child. The wetting of the bed confirms her fear. She wrote about and absent father, so her mother is the only protection she had. She is afraid to loose her hence the search of strength in her mother.…

    My Favourite Poem

    This is my favourite poem as it describes hope by using a powerful array of metaphors to enhance its effect. While it is true that many people all over the world live in extremely challenging and life threatening situations, leading hard lives in appalling conditions. What keeps people going in such circumstances is the glimmer of hope that things can change. This is one thought that came to mind when first reading the poem and this is what attracted me to it and as it relates to any hopeless situations it really does apply to all aspects of life.…
