I liked this poem because though the poem was very short, it also was very deep and left me thinking about each word the author described. For instance, when the author wrote about the word silence, saying as soon as you say the word you destroy it I had to stop, and think what she meant. This poem also made me very confused because of the way the author presented the poem. For example, when she described someone speaking…

Amanda Ford Ms. Drosdick Language Arts, per. 6 12/26/17 Roald Dahl. 26 years after his death, and almost everyone knows the name Roald Dahl. In life he was nicknamed the children's champion, and for good reason. His wonderfully fantastical children's books have fueled the imaginations of generations of children; If you've never read Roald Dahl, then you've never had a childhood.

However, the last stanza takes a different form, following a DDDD format, with the words “deep,” “keep,” “sleep,” and “sleep” (13-16).

Then the second half and final six lines is the sestet which has varying rhyme schemes but commonly “cdecde, cdcdcd, and cdccdc” (Meyer 778). The octave of the poem sets the mood and situation while the sestet resolves it. An English sonnet is organized into three quatrains…

1. Sonnet 18 Perhaps one of Shakespeare’s most famous sonnets, Sonnet 18 presents an idea of permanence, or rather, stability. The speaker begins by asking whether he should or will compare "thee" to a summer day. The speaker says that this “thee” is more lovely and more even-tempered, by listing the cons of summer: winds shake the buds that emerged in Spring, summer ends too quickly, and the sun can get too hot or be obscured by clouds. The speaker goes on to say that everything beautiful…

Both poems have rhyme schemes in order to emphasize the message in the poems. “Fire and Ice” have nine lines, while “Nothing Gold Can Stay” has eight; Frost uses this style to show the equal importance of every line so no person could favor one line over the other because each individual line completes the theme of the poem.
