‘Sunlight on the garden’ by Louis MacNeice It starts to become apparent that MacNeice talks about the finality of death. We are shown this in the first stanza where MacNeice states that the ‘sunlight in the garden hardens and grows cold’. . The sunlight‚ which displays a sense of warmth and beauty‚ ‘grows cold’.
