Tell me , is the rose naked ?
Summarize-
Tell me, Is the Rose Naked?
Summary:
Stanza 1: The first stanza is about the thought of rose’s petals, which are known for their beauty. Like a beautiful red dress is like the outside of a rose, and on the inside is the real rose.
Stanza 2: The author is wondering and questioning why the tree roots are hidden below the soil, and why we cannot see the most important part of the tree, the part that holds it to the ground and gives it life and growth.
Stanza 3: This analogy is referring to how do you feel any sort of regret when doing something you will regret.
Stanza 4: This stanza is talking about how sad it is for a train to be stuck in the middle of no where, its like a lost puppy sitting in the cold rain waiting for its owner. Like the train waiting for its driver
The imagery the author uses paints many images in your head having you to over think of what is actually happening. It begins as happy, beautiful images and becomes more dark and sad. All of the images are slowly flowing smoothly throughout the stanzas , bringing together the idea of a woman leaving a man.

Personalize- This poem connects to some relations ships in real life. It states that many relations ships can come to an end, by losing someone, breakups, or even by death.
Interpret:
The poet uses personification to give a rose clothing, give trees the decision to hide away their roots or not and a car stealing people away instead of the people leaving in the car. The author also uses imagery, to make us see what the point of view is.

Comment -
The thematic statements present heartbreak, loneliness, being left alone, hiding away from true feelings, having the feeling of having no one to go to.

Essential questions-
Why do people base their happiness on one person if their happiness isn't guaranteed ?

    Each of these poems are grappling with the idea of loss and isolation. The isolation, rather than being crippling, is instead uplifting and motivating. It allow the speaker’s a chance to grow from their loss, and in that growth, fight back and resist the perpetrated wrongs. By recognizing what has happened…

    As evident by the title of this poem, imagery is a strong technique used in this poem as the author describes with great detail his journey through a sawmill town. This technique is used most in the following phrases: “...down a tilting road, into a distant valley.” And “The sawmill towns, bare hamlets built of boards with perhaps a store”. This has the effect of creating an image in the reader’s mind and making the poem even more real.…

    The part that surprises me about the poem was how fast things changed. One moment I think about a lovely couple in young love and them it just changes at the end with twist of “growling…Hell’s Angels.” One moment I thought it was going to be a happy poem about this couple and then a train with a “black window” and head lights on in the day. I start think that something was different about this poem once the author introduced the train.…

    The poem includes “the clouds assemble and mumble their messages” (6) and “the grass, in its green time, bows to whatever moves it” (11). The clouds must have been given the chance to “assemble” (6) and converge through the use of the same wind that swayed the grass. Personification does well to develop a sense of connectivity that all life has on Earth. Such examples are examples of personification namely because clouds cannot innately “mumble their messages” (6) and the ground does not innately shudder as an ant walks upon it (3). These non-living entities are given human characteristics in the form of sentiments and actions not natural to these entities in real…

    The second stanza demonstrates the understanding that journeys are always speckled with obstacles which we have learn from and at the same time accounts for the importance of the journey itself rather than the final destination. In “Mountain Sound,” the traveller encounters are beings that had scars and scratches too unnatural to be of natural causes thus sparking his curiosity about their past. Upon further observation however, the traveller suddenly realises that these strangers were probably creatures that were not human based on the reference to “we were nothing like the rest.” The use of the phrase “as I looked around” hints that the traveller was…

    In her poem “One Perfect Rose,” Dorothy Parker misleads the reader throughout the first and second stanzas into believing this poem is a romantic tribute to a tender moment from her past through her word choice and style of writing. However, the tone of the entire poem dramatically changes upon reading the third and final stanza when Parker allows the reader to understand her true intention of the poem, which is a cynical and perhaps bewildered view of the memory. And, with this shift in the tone in the third stanza, there is a shift in the meaning of the entire poem, leading the reader to believe that the first two stanzas were not, in fact, sweet but instead a sarcastic and bitter account of this past moment. In the first stanza, Dorothy Parker uses specific words to create a double meaning. She uses words like “tenderly,” “pure,” and “perfect” to describe both the rose and it’s sender. The words directly influence the reader’s initial reaction to the poem, as does the way in which she writes the poem. The stanza has four lines with every other line rhyming (ABAB format). It is short and sweet with a melodic quality in it’s reading. This musical quality definitely helps to lull the reader into the belief that the poem’s intention is to come across as a romantic recollection. However, in reading the poem through a second time, equipped with the knowledge of it’s true bitter notions, the reader sees what is purposely hidden but directly affects the overall tone. Parker mentions first and foremost the fact that this gentleman sent her “a single flow’r” and ends the stanza with the phrase “one perfect rose.” There is a repetition here that at first the reader passes off as her noting the delicacy of the solitary flower. Upon reading the last stanza, it is realized that she is actually pointing out the fact that the only thing she received was one flower-that’s it. And, although there is a melodic quality to the rhythm to this poem, this rhythm accentuates the…

    The poem also uses images associated with pains and fears the speaker faces to communicate its tone of deep depression. The first stanza shows us a child's nightmare of "bat", "rat" and "ghoul"; followed by equipment of torture such as "walls", "racks" and "drugs"; then criminal acts of "treason" and "murder"; men in authority as in "old men", "bureaucrats" and "man...who thinks he is God" and finally the vivid description of the brutal act and the detachment of the speaker from its source of humanity. All these depressive images are interrupted only in the third stanza, with a sense of longing and in warmer tone, to experience life from childhood (being "dandle") to death (being guided by "a white light"). It brings images of nature and life and all that we take for granted.…

    As she contemplates on the idea of heaven, to further give herself reason why the belief in it is wrong. In stanza six she says, “Is there no change of death in paradise? / Does ripe fruit never fall? / Or do the boughs / Hang there heavy in that perfect sky.” The woman doesn’t understand the concept of heaven, as in the previous stanza she says that death brings about change and change brings beauty. By containing this notion, how would heaven be beautiful if there is no change? She isn’t able to conceive or image a heaven of this is what to be expected. As she ponders on this she recognizes the earth to be “perishing.” The readers once again see the back in forth going on in the woman’s thoughts. She wants to believe in something more, in “imperishable bliss” but wonders if heaven is where she will find this, when the beauty she looks for happens on earth because change always happens. Through these lines, the author is demonstrating how finding an eternal contentment could be difficult, and the woman is a testament of this. Always searching for more, something everlasting, but scared that she won’t find what she sees as beautiful in anywhere…

    Forget Not Yet

    • 611 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The first stanza is based around the desire of the speaker to commend himself to his lover as he talks about the many hardships he has faced and the sufferings he has endured to enable to recommend himself to her. In reference to the "great travail" or great labor the speaker has spent in trying to win the lady's affection (line 3). The speaker claims that his affection is the true affection (line 2). The fourth line refrain ‘Forget not yet’ emphasizes this desire. The request in the second stanza is for his lady not to forget when they first began this tired life of service, which no one really understands. The reference to his "suit" (wooing) and "service" in trying to win the lady is touching (line 7). The repetition of the phrase "Forget not yet" at the start and end of each stanza form a kind of refrain as the speaker fills the content of each stanza with proof of his devotion and love for his beloved and reasons why she should not "forget" the strength and depth of his love for her. Here in the third stanza, the lover is asked not to overlook the big criticisms, the mean injustices. It appears from the pleading tone that runs throughout this stanza that the speaker is trying to remonstrate with his lover and to try and encourage her to not dismiss him or end their relationship. The cruel treatment and the pain of waiting through delays in decision-making make him desperate man. So his lady has been "cruel" and "scornful" in rejecting his request. Line 12 is a repetition of line 4 again, and this serves to build up the negative issues, which the speaker is attempting to highlight. The appeal here in the forth…
