a simple yet beautiful poem that describes the beauty of nature and how it can inspire our lives. Wordsworth uses images to describe the scene to the reader‚ like a painting on a canvas; that explains vividly how the poet saw it. An example of the creativity is how the daffodils presented an almost human quality in the way they resemble dancers dancing in unison as if presenting a show. At the end of every alternate line of the poem there is a rhyming word‚ giving the poem both continuity and a sense

During poetry cafe‚ our group sang a song called “Life is Worth Living”‚ it’s originally song by Justin Bieber. This song can inspire me‚ because I can sing the song to let others remember me and have a good impression. I will discuss three figurative languages in this essay‚ which is Smile‚ Hyperbole and Rhyme‚ and they all can show the essence of this song. When the song sings that "It’s like you’re stuck on a treadmill.”‚ the author uses a simile. Simile means to compare two things with using

Personally for me ‚ I felt more similarly to the Langston Hughes essay. The era the essay is written from might be another reason since it is more modern and easier to relate. Compared to the Gates essay it was easier to wrap my head around it. I was able to dissect the essay and see the true meaning you could say. The wording Huge used was also more modern and easier to understand. From my point of view I felt Hughes put more of his focus on the importance of culture. He wanted the present day

I cannot cut out a piece of my head and give it to you. Unfortunately‚ lobotomies performed by untrained individuals such as myself tend to end in death. Even if I did manage to harvest a little piece of my brain and live long enough to place it in your hand‚ you would only have a lifeless‚ squishy mass of tissue that used to be inside of my skull. There would be no memories or emotions; you would be no closer to understanding my experiences or me as a person. That’s the thing about the human mind:

Shakespeare’s sonnet LXXI. It is through diction‚ sound devices‚ irony‚ and figurative language that Shakespeare reveals his outlook on death and grief. Starting in the 1st line it is told to beloved not to “mourn” (1) for the speaker when they have died. This establishes that the speaker does not want to be remembered while simultaneously implying a remembrance of them. It sets a strange tone for the rest of the poem while also showing that Shakespeare thinks death should be forgotten but knows

The Eagle a classic work of literature with a simplistic tone and theme being the analysis of an eagle prowling and taking flight. Figurative language such as "with crooked hands‚" "close to the sun‚" "the wrinkled sea beneath him crawls." "He clasps the crag with crooked hands." Poems are riddled with figurative language‚ and The Eagle is no exception‚ personified objects and animals are the easiest way to relate to anybody. As if an eagle could have hands rather than the talons that birds are

In the Langston Hughes poem‚ “Open Letter to the South”‚ is about workers needing to unify despite their color. He also talks about how together they will be stronger and more powerful; together they can rise and get rid of the plow and time clock of the past. He wants everyone to forget about being separate and look at becoming equal.

The poem discusses Hughes’ background and identity as a person of mixed race‚ a white father and a black mother. To go about how he feels about it‚ he uses both literal and implied definition of words. When he states that “My old man’s a white old man” and “And my old mother’s black” he simply states his parents’ identity. He uses the literal definitions of the words “white” and “black” and describes his parents with color and no other way. The title of the poem‚ “Cross‚” however‚ can be used to
