    • 2 Pages

    During the revision of my poems many elements were changed. This included the length‚structure‚diction‚ opening and closing. All my poems got longer; most of them substantially. All of my poems grew by at least one stanza. This was not at all intentional as I feel poems should just be as long as the creator deems necessary; assuming they don’t need to meet specific criteria. This is what differentiates a poem from a song. Most songs are edited and manipulated to fit in the 3 - minute time slot radio

    The Jaguar Poetry Analysis

    • 1072 Words
    • 5 Pages

    The poem ‘The Jaguar’ written by Ted Hughes describes the lifestyles of animals at a zoo and their different attitudes to entrapment in their cage. It compares the bored‚ lazy moods of the animals to the lively‚ adventurous mood of the jaguar‚ which does not see this confinement as a way of stopping him behaving as if it were in its natural environment. The poet’s clever use of techniques such as similes and metaphors clearly puts an image in our minds of the animal’s ways of life and gives an accurate

    Elizabeth Bishop poses interesting questions delivered by means of a unique style. Do you agree? Focus on themes and stylistic features. In my opinion‚ Elizabeth Bishop has a unique style of asking interesting questions. Bishop invites us along on the journey with her. She does this by her “painterly eye” which she has been praised for. In her poems she takes the ordinary and turns it into the extraordinary. As a reader‚ I wonder why she goes into so much detail. There is a story behind each of

    Sonnet 69 was written by Pablo Neruda in the 20th century.  As I was reading the original sonnet‚ I was filled with inner joy and love.  The original sonnet brings profound feelings‚ flashbacks‚ and makes you and the sonnet feel as if one.  However‚ the translation of sonnet 69 does not. It is rather dull and brings no sense of joy.                 In sonnet 69‚ the type of figurative language that is being used is hyperbole; which helps create emphasis. In Stanza 2‚ the line “like the red beginning

    Compare and Contrast ‘First Ice’ and ‘Manwatching’ The two poems I am going to compare and contrast are ‘First Ice’ by Andrei Vosnesky and ‘Manwatching’ by Georgia Garrett. The first obvious difference between the poems is that ‘First Ice’ is written by a man and ‘Manwatching’ is written by a woman. However‚ both poets seem to adopt a female persona. ‘First Ice’ is about “a girl” who has broken up with someone for the “first time” by phone call. The girl was planning to go out to a party with
