The very first day of class we looked at British nursery rhymes. Nursery rhymes are short rhymed poems for children that retain parts of history that are passed down from adult to child. The authors of “London Bridge is Falling Down‚” and “Ring around the Rosy‚” also known as “Ring a Ring of Rosies‚” use rhyme in a playful way to tell of significant events throughout the history of London. The verses in “London Bridge‚” are used to talk about the different materials that were used to rebuild and

A Poison Tree by William Blake can be interpreted to be a metaphor that explains a truth of human nature. I believe that this poem teaches how anger can be dismissed by kindness and friendliness‚ and nurtured to become a deadly ‘poison’. The opening stanza sets up everything for the entire poem‚ from the ending of anger with the “friend‚” to the continuing anger with the “foe.” Blake startles the reader with such clarity of the poem‚ which is often missed in Blake’s poems‚ and with metaphors that

The Lamb & The Tyger William Blake “The Lamb” and “The Tyger” are two different poems written by William Blake‚ the first taken from the Songs of Innocence and the second taken from the Songs of Experience. Both poems follow an A-A-B-B rhyme scheme and both focus on the topic of religion. Many sources have recommended the reading of the two poems together and I‚ myself‚ found that it was an experiment worth trying. When I first read “The Lamb” I was sure that it would be a poem with Jesus

With his individual visions William Blake created new symbols and myths in the British literature. The purpose of his poetry was to wake up our imagination and to present the reality between a heavenly place and a dark hell. In his Songs of Innocence and Songs of Experience he manages to do this with simplicity.

The use of children is a prominent theme in William Blake’s poems. He sees the world through the eyes of a child and embraces the innocence of the young. He illustrates this style in poems such as "the lamb"‚ "the little black boy"‚ and "the chimney sweeper". The lamb really illustrates the innocence and purity of a young child. The boy questions the lamb as to where it came from and he expects the lamb to answer back‚ but it is obvious to the reader that the lamb cannot talk. As the boy receives
