Compare how ideas about power are conveyed in Hawk Roosting and one other poem? The effects of power seem to be largely psychological in both poems.

Two particular poems of his‚ "After Apple Picking" and "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" are great examples of poems with the theme about nature.

Poetry essay ‘Hawk Roosting’ by Ted Hughes Question: Poetry is the expression of a poet’s singular outlook.
