In the poem, “To Autumn”, Keats signifies the notion of life and death. He uses sequences of autumn to symbolize the undeniable truth of death. In the poem, each stanza contains its own individual moment of autumn. The first stanza emphasizes the season’s beginning stage; the stanza contains various figurative languages and rhetorical devices in which formulate how fruits are abundant and how crops are being grown.

I said before, his visionary religious beliefs caused his visionary poetry to assert deep truths about the universe. The effect of industrialization also caused him to say that a mechanical hand maybe has created the tiger. "School Boy" is another poem by Blake which condemns the society restrictions on human soul.

Using a variety of literary techniques, from natural symbols to personification, Bogan effectively creates a poem commenting on how life goes on after we are gone but it will still be beautiful and there is still hope.
