Comparing Movies The last 2 movies I saw were “The Last Song” and “Dear John”. Considering both of these movies are sappy Nicholas Sparks books‚ they have a ton of similarities. They also have some differences. I saw both of these movies more than 4 months ago so I hope I can even remember enough to compare them. One similarity is about 2 people that meet in a beach setting. In “The Last Song”‚ Ronnie‚ who is played by Miley Cyrus and is the main character‚ is shipped to her fathers house in

Personal Response to Dear Daddy The short story Dear Daddy by Lee Maracle brought me back the tears that I‚ too‚ had as a child.

The story‚ written in the form of a letter‚ shows the process of a thirteen-year-old girl becoming more mature as she expresses her grievances from her tragic childhood. At the beginning

The main relationship in the two poems “My Papa’s Waltz” by Theodore Roethke and “Daddy” by Sylvia Plath is portrayed by the bond between a father and his child. Though both poems have the same overall subject‚ they can be perceived differently. In “Daddy”‚ Sylvia Plath represented the relationship through a dark demeanor. While in “My Papa’s Waltz” it had a lighter perception. In “Daddy” the poem goes through stages of dislike and anger. It starts off as if saying the child is done keeping the

Digging Summary The poem begins with our speaker at his desk‚ his pen poised to begin writing. He gets distracted by the sound of his father outside‚ working in the garden‚ and this sends our speaker into a spiral of memories about his father working in the potato fields when the speaker was a young boy. The memory stretches even further back to his grandfather and the hard work he did as a peat harvester (there’s all kinds of hard work going on). Eventually‚ our speaker snaps out of his daydream

Little Fugue by Sylvia Plath is my first example of how we all perceive our different relationships. This poem is

of her maniac tendencies and obsession‚ she had her ‘own corpse in’ the ‘Grave of [her] risen father’. Plath’s anger and despair is cumulatively articulated in her poem Daddy. Her use of language techniques powerfully instructs and elicits sympathy in her readers when revealing her suffering and perspectives of her father. Daddy is a ‘confessional’ and a judgmental poem‚ addressed directly to her father with bitterness and sadness about her personal sufferings. This negativity with the apparent warmth
