Chevrefoil The Honeysuckle Analysis

Decent Essays
“Chevrefoil (The Honeysuckle)” has been a great poem of love. I am interested in this story to learn about how when two people are separated their love depart from one another. As I read this poem, it brought the thought to my mind of how certain people really have love to others and they don’t even know it. Something that also grasped my attention was how they use a honeysuckle to the two for their love. I think that was a perfect example to compare them with. I don’t think they should be set apart. With them having the love they have for each other. I find this poem so romance.
Another reason I am interested in this poem is how they never gave up on each other. A lots of time couples who move apart don’t think things would work out how they

    John Frederick Nims’ “Love Poem” is a poem describing someone he loves. The first line of the poem, “My clumsiest dear, whose hands shipwreck vases”, at first may be interpreted as the start of some form of insult. This line also intrigues the reader to continue and explore what Nims has to say about his “dear”. Though the poem begins by depicting some negative attributes that his love possesses, Nims doesn’t forget to describe her positive attributes, “Only with words and people and love you move at ease”. Overall the poem uses different elements of poetry to portray the idea that although his “dear” has many imperfect qualities, he loves her despite of them all.…

    Handwritten Reunion An Analysis of Tess Gallagher’s “Under Stars” “Under Stars” seems lifeless at first glance; however there's more than meets the eye since Tess Gallagher buries the deeper meanings under ambiguous words and lines to create a dramatic effect when the poem is broken down through diction and other literary devices. “Under Stars”, the title alone, automatically paints an image of a dark night with clear skies with an air of despair and desire in the reader's mind. Tess Gallagher cleverly sets up the poem as a story, in which both perspectives of the characters are shown. As the title suggests, the poem is about the hope two friends have to rekindle their weakened friendship by sending each other letters in the mail.…

    The Raven is Grief “The Raven” by Edgar Allan Poe enforces deep sadness and grief upon the reader through literacy context that somehow persuades one’s feelings to agree with the character’s own.

The poem references the raven which casts a shadow over a majority of the story, symbolizing the emotions and realizations of the character. Although the raven is seemingly an actual creature, it is actually a metaphor to represent the character’s grief throughout the poem.…

    In “Morning in the Burned House,” Margaret Atwood suggests that when recalling the past there is a tendency for a person to desire dwelling in the past instead of living in the present, therefore there must be a destructive force in order to reinforce reality and continue progress. The author of the poem carefully chose the title as it reveals a lot about the entire meaning of the poem. Atwood used words such as morning, burned, and house in the title. Morning might be a connotation of a new beginning or a symbol of hope, but it is the opposite of its homonym, “mourning,” which is usually attached to grief or sorrow.…
