lines seven and eight that are probably the most salient lines in the poem. The lines state: Yet many a man is making friends with death Even as I speak‚ for lack of love alone. (7-8) Lines one through six have ten syllables each‚ using iambic pentameter. Line seven has eleven syllables unlike the previous six lines; is this difference intentional? I think that it is; the sonnet takes abrupt turn here‚ taking the reader in another direction. It is here that we realize the poem has a deeper message

ENGLISH LITERATURE ASSIGNMENT 1 POEM ANALYSIS REASON FOR CHOOSING THIS POEM I choose this poem ‘if’ by Rudyard Kipling because when I read this poem it reminds me of when I was a little girl how it was difficult to grow up.

It makes me remember how hard it is to do things on my own and it took me a very long time to be independent and start to mature. It also make me think how much farther

We grow accustomed to the dark... Darkness is a recurring image in literature that evokes a universal unknown‚ yet is often entrenched in many meanings. A master poet‚ Emily Dickinson employs darkness as a metaphor many times throughout her poetry. In “We grow accustomed to the dark” (#428) she talks of the “newness” that awaits when we “fit our Vision to the Dark.” As enigmatic and shrouded in mystery as the dark she explores‚ Dickinson’s poetry seems our only door to understanding the recluse
