In the poem “Raleigh Was Right‚” author William Carlos Williams makes his viewpoint quite clear. Williams expresses his thoughts to explain the impossibility of the perfect life lived out in the country. The tone of voice in his poem would be logical and realistic. He does this by not allowing the reader to believe that there will be a perfect safe haven in the countryside. This poem negates the message from “The Passionate Shepherd to His Love.” He shows the reader that finding peace surrounded

The poem “This is Just to Say” by William Carlos Williams‚ is a confession note that is left by the writer to the reader of the note‚ telling them that they ate the plums they were saving for breakfast. Even though the writer states “Forgive me”‚ I don’t think that the writer wants to be forgiven. I think the writer is being sarcastic because the writer goes on and describes how delicious‚ sweet‚ and cold the plums were. To me‚ it seems like the writing is rubbing it in the reader’s face.

Go there and tell how when the dawn‚ Her early light diffusing‚ Your petals first flung open wide; His steps beside chill Neckar drawn‚ You see him silent by your side‚ Upon its Spring perennial musing

It was enlightening to see the field of dancing and entertaining from the male and female perspective. Overall‚ both genders work hard in their profession‚ but in different aspects. I found it fascinating that in the documentary “La Bare‚” one of the dancer’s points out that “male entertainers work harder than the female entertainers. All the females have to worry about is having nice titties and they are good to look at.” I disagree with his statement. Though the males put a lot more “stage antics”
