The puzzles of meaning the three poems have seem hidden‚ and then very obvious. These authors use nature as a conduit between their poetry and the reader. The imagery of Hayden Carruth’s poemLittle Citizen‚ Little Survivor‚ is of an elderly man who lives in the forest far from civilization‚ who finds comfort in the creatures
