In the Evening Hawk‚ Robert Penn Warren makes extensive use of figurative language‚ imagery‚ and symbolism to describe a foreboding scene that calls attention to the passage of time. He uses simile and the symbol of the Evening Hawk to convey a scene in which he suggests that man is being judged. Warren calls attention to the slow‚ grim passage of time with simile‚ suggesting that “history [drips] into darkness like a leaking pipe in the cellar.” Were there “no wind‚” he says‚ we might

Frost The Woods are Lovely‚ Dark and Deep In the poems I have analyzed that were written by Robert Frost‚ the common theme is always nature. The theme nature encompasses so many areas but can be narrowed even more specifically to Robert Frost’s fascination with woods and trees. There must be a reason why Robert Frost is compelled to use this as an almost constant theme.

It is a beautiful poem of fifty-two lines‚ addressed to a goddess figure representing evening.
