Finding and explaining the themes in the poem “Perhaps”
The main themes of the poem are nature, time and the loss of a loved one. The beauty of nature is described throughout the poem but this is tinged with sad references to a love lost.
The poem is structured around the four seasons; autumn, winter, spring, and summer. I believe it may be structured in this way to demonstrate that nature and time go on despite the war and the poet’s sadness and also perhaps because she is fearful that the the pain of losing her love will be everlasting.
The poem features five stanzas of regular length, the first of which features a lot of repetition representing feelings of uncertainty and hopelessness as every hour of every day seems to be the same.
The complete poem is dedicated to the poet’s lost love Roland who was sadly killed in the trenches in 1915. The one thing that the passing of time will be sure not to return to her is her one love and all the other courageous men who died for their country.
