Honors English IV December 11‚ 2009 The theme of "A Poison Tree" by William Blake is about wrath and anger.

William Blake‚ London London by William Blake is a poem characterised by its dark and overbearing tone. It is a glimpse at a period of England ’s history (particularly London) during war and poverty‚ experienced by the narrator as he walks through the streets. Using personification it draws a great human aspect to its representation of thoughts and beliefs of the narrator. The author uses a rhyme scheme that mirrors the pace of walking.
