    Themes & Corresponding Works Whether reading a short story or a poem, there is always a story to be found within. The authors of these scripts are able to capture readers with the utilization of characterization, rhythm, or a fairytale setting throughout their narrative. It is imagination that sanctions the reader of these literary forms to be able to mentally visualize what the author would like the reader to visually perceive by use of symbolism or descriptive wording. In the poem “The Road Not Taken” (Frost, 1916) or short stories “A Worn Path” Welty, 1941 or “Used to Live Here Once” (Rhys, 1976) – There is a prevalent theme. No matter what solitary journey we find ourselves on, ‘we’ determine how the journey ends.…

    Oceans is overall a top-line song rather than a bottom-line one. This is because the focus of the song is on God’s blessings on a more personal note. It is about trusting God on a deeper level and moving forward in you relationship with him. Something I have always gotten from it is that the more you trust and give up to God, the more room he has to do miracles. I choose this song because, to put it simply, I love it. Oceans is a beautiful song with a great melody and a wonderful meaning and is easily one of my favorite worship songs if not my favorite. It references Jesus and Peter in the storm in Mathew 14.…
