I think “Good Day Sunshine” is the poem that I can identify most because this is the poem the author shows his happiness and excitement for get a new girlfriend. The meaning I draw from this song is that a man fell in love with his new girlfriend, referred to in the song “I feel good in a special way, I’m in love and it’s a sunny day”. We can also think the special day is the day that the author fall in love, although actually is a normal day, for the author is sunny and special. There is a poetic devices is used in this poem—rhyme. It can make the readers much better to feel the author’s feeling. Although this is a simple and easy understanding poem, the rhyme and the feeling inside that the readers may love it.

For today journals, both of them are difficult for me to understand. Nevertheless, I can still draw something from the poem King Of Pain. In this poem, we can see that the author was under a great painful form “There’s a little black spot on the sun today, the same old thing as yesterday, there’s a black hat caught in a high tree top”. Because the author was under a great painful, everything in his eyes is black, old and shabby. Also, from the words “it’s my soul up there”, it told us that the author felt bad as the black old thing, it’s also mean that the author’s soul is out of his body. In this poem, we can easy to find couples of poetic devices in it. There are catharsis, similes and personifications. These poetic devices make this poem have a stronger feeling and let the reader much easier to understand.

    Here he answers the questions to himself why is he in such state of mind. This is the place where he has used the imagery for the purposeful communication that the thoughts of the loved one are always encircling him regardless of the place he is in. the poet has used the diction in the 2nd and third stanza as he goes long by counting out all the surrounding environments. The poetry is marvelous as all the surroundings namely “roaring traffic's boom” and also “silence of my lonely room” is used so as to make the reader aware about the inevitable love that the poet feels deep inside the heart. Many poetic expressions are visible as tick, tick, tock o clock then beat of the tom tom then drip, drip of the rain drops in summer showers are all poetry used as symbolic expression of inner love whispering…

    The true nature of the poem was cordial and relaxing. The sentiment was also inspiring as the poem gave me the strong feeling of passion by his use of poetic devices and tone. The verse "Loving can heal, loving can mend your soul" paints a beautiful mental image which strengthens the power and passion the poet is trying to portray. In addition, the verse "We keep this love in a photograph" allows for the symbolization of a picture as a memory of love. This provides the poem with the basic foundation that drives the poet's ambition to reconstruct the love he feels toward his significant other. All in all, the poem talks about capturing the key moments he felt closely toward his partner and to use it to keep the inner flame of their relationship…

    Two specific techniques are used to convey the idea of how the woman in the poem feels about her husband and how she expresses her feelings. These two techniques are rhyming and repetition. The use of rhyming gives the poem a flow to go by. Every last word of a line rhymes with the following last word to create a greater effect of what is being tried to say. The rhymed words give the poem an accent helping to capture the romanticism of the poem. Repetition is seen in the first three lines of the poem when the speaker says, "If ever." The use of these words over and over again show how the speaker feels that it is near impossible to find another love such as the one she has at the moment. These two techniques give the poem an atmosphere of true love and compassion.…

    I see it as love described in all its brutality and the moment is described as being completely lost in a moment. Maybe it’s a one night stand, or maybe it’s all about falling in love for the first time. It may not necessarily be the first time that they had sex, but it’s definitely the first time that they were in love. I also think it is interesting that we do not know the gender of the subject in the poem.…

    Many readers even confuse the very way it is written with simple, plain text. On the contrary, One Art is written in and follows the Villanelle structure. This structure is often thought of as one of the most challenging and hard to understand structures in poetry. However, to the untrained eye, the poem is casual and flows smoothly and simply. The poem often times forces readers to look within themselves to determine the meaning, therefore giving the poem the flexibility to fit everyone’s situation.…

    I wanted to recite this poem to my father in father’s day last Sunday and I did it. Before I started memorizing the poem, I wanted to understand it very well. At the beginning, it cost me a little bit to understand the meaning of all those words and the poem in general, but after I read the poem a few times I could finally understand the meaning of the poem and what was the author trying to say. After I understood the poem, I started memorizing it. It cost me a few hours because this is the first time that I am reading books related to English literature, so all those words are phrases are totally new to me. Also, it took me while to memorize the poem because some of the lines had some words that do not make sense when they are written in the same phrase or sentence. After, I memorized all the poem and I understood word by word, I started practicing in front of the mirror and when I had nothing to do, because I really wanted to impress my father by reciting this in poem in his day.…
