Imagery in the poem | Example of image | | The poem begins in the labour ward of the hospital: it is ’hot‚ white ’ (line 2) and sterile‚ which seems at odds with the intimate event that is about to occur. Further on it is seen as ’a square / Environmental blank ’ (line 9) and a ’glass tank ’ (line 19). Why do you think Clarke places so much emphasis on the hospital building? | | Before the actual birth‚ Clarke looks out of the window at ’The people and cars ’ (line 4) going about their

Analysis of “Hawk Roosting” Hawk Roosting is a poem written by Ted Hughes (1930-1998). Hughes was a British poet who often described the destructive aspects of animal life‚ survival instincts and the brutality of nature. His poem Hawk Roosting deals with the themes evil‚ power and human nature told from the point of view of a hawk. This poem therefore coheres with Hughes’ other work. In my analysis I will be focusing on a characterization of the first person and what this hawk symbolizes. I will

There Is No Frigate Like a Book Emily Dickinson There is no frigate like a book To take us lands away‚ Nor any coursers like a page Of prancing poetry. This traverse may the poorest take Without oppress of toll; How frugal is the chariot That bears a human soul! Emily Dickinson foregrounds the simple pleasure of reading an enjoyable book by four striking metaphors: 1. A book is compared to a "frigate" - a light sailing vessel capable of travelling at high speeds. 2. light verse is compared

Rant The Toronto Transit Commission sounds like a big corporation that cares for their customers‚ provides valued transportation and helps everyone arrive on time; well none of those statements were true. It seems that we pay quite a lot through our taxes and fares but only receive mediocre services. I saw this ad the other day and it said “would you pay more for better TTC services” I couldn’t help but laugh at how the transit commission already acknowledges they’re horrible services and demand

One of the most moving and emotional of Heaney’s works is his collection of sonnets called ’Clearances’. These sonnets were written in dedication and memoriam to his mother Margaret Kathleen Heaney‚ who died in 1984. As Neil Corcoran comments "Everything Heaney has himself written about his childhood reinforces the sense of domestic warmth and affection as its prevailing atmosphere." (A Student’s Guide to Seamus Heaney‚ Faber & Faber Ltd‚ 1986‚ London.) The eight sonnets are filled with lively‚ detailed

Close analysis on We Real Cool This poem is about young school dropouts who make the wrong choices while they are young – ‘Left school’ (line 4)‚ ‘Lurk late’ (line 5)‚ ‘Strike straight’ (line 6) ‘Die soon’ (line 10). The setting could well be in the current‚ because there are still many school dropouts right now and they could possibly make the same choices as the dropouts in the poem. The larger issue is about the coolness of the school dropouts; they die soon‚ so are they really that cool as they
