Analysis Of William Blake’s Poems Infant Joy Notes This simple poem is two stanzas of six lines each. The two stanzas each follow an ABCDDC rhyme scheme‚ a contrast to most of Blake’s other poetic patterns. The rhyming words are always framed by the repetition of "thee" at the end of the fourth and sixth lines‚ drawing the reader’s attention to the parent‚ who speaks‚ and his or her concern with the baby. The infant’s words‚ or those imagined by the parent to be spoken by the infant‚ are set

The poem "Cross" by P.K.Page describes the sorrow of witnessing a stony couple who can barely remember why they are angry with each other after a week-long battle. They won’t discuss it or resolve it because "neither/can come to that undemanded act of love-/kiss the sleeping princess or sleep with the frog--/and break the spell which holds them each from the other." So the couple ends up like "two on a desert island‚ back to back‚" an emotional chasm dividing them which neither is willing to bridge

poet. Frost wrote in his own style‚ and as a result‚ he took quite a bit of heat from the critics of his period. Frost has an elegant style of writing descriptive and understandable poems.

shocked the whole world and‚ on the other hand‚ became an inspiration for many writers. The aim of poetry were: to stop spreading violence among people‚ to finish the cruel war‚ and to make people aware of all consequences of fighting. The three great examples of such works are‚ in my opinion: Siegfried Sassoon’s “The General”‚ Isaac Rosenberg’s “Break of Day in The Trenches” and Wilfred Owen’s “Anthem for Doomed Youth”. The first of them‚ “The General” presents the criticism of getting benefits

February 8‚ 2013 “Three Sins in Killing Three” The seventeenth century saw the creation of the anti-Petrarchan poem. Its purpose was used in a satirical way to make fun of another popular poetic style of the era‚ the Petrarchan poem. The Petrarchan poem is notorious for glorifying women and portraying them as unrealistic‚ goddess-like creatures; and so the anti-Petrarchan poem did quite the opposite. “The Flea”‚ written by John Doe is a perfect example of an anti-Petrarchan poem. “The Flea” is filled

He Had Such Quiet Eyes By: Bibsy Soenharjo 3.1 SYNOPSIS OF THE POEM The poem is about a woman who has been deceived to think that she was loved by a man with ‘quiet eyes’. She suffers for this and only learns on hindsight not to trust or give in to men who seek women only for pleasure. The poet gives an advice on being able to recognise what is true and what is not‚ when a person is truly friendly and when he is not. You may lose in the game of love and give your heart away‚ but knowing the truth

not dehumanizing as Owen in his ’Dulce et Decorum Est’ has pointed out. The violence and destructiveness of war reduces men in the battlefield into something less than human; they are stripped of their dignity. Ultimately as Owen points out in his poem‚ war is senseless or futile. Whatever the reason for going to war‚ it’s not justification enough for the senseless slaughter of young lives. Owen‚ as you know‚ has great ability in challenging the responders senses‚ to experience the horror of
