    by William Blake‚ “The Flea” by John Donne‚ and “ A Noiseless Patient Spider” by Walt Whitman‚ all three very differing poems‚ yet all have one major common connection. They use nature as a comparing factor for their outstanding themes. William uses the metaphor of an apple tree to capture his theme of unspoken anger‚ John uses a flea as a metaphor for love and sex‚ and Walt depicts the soul through the use of imagery of a spider spitting its web.
