The poem is structured as a sonnet which commonly expresses a theme of love throughout the lines. Also it is paired with the “ABAB” rhyme scheme to give an emotional view to the readers about the conflict he has. Also the sonnet and the rhyme scheme is a common usage of poem making and many people know what it is, so the poet uses this structure to let readers understand more easily and clearly. He also uses the “ABAB” scheme to separate parts that are important within themselves.

Utopia is usually defined as a place of ideal perfection, an ideal world; although this concept is rather ambiguous and is widely debated in contemporary society. The notion of an ideal world originated from More’s text Utopia, in which Hythloday describes his ideal world, although More disagrees. This leads to the conceptualisation of utopias being subjective, as people are influenced by their respective texts, cultures and values when they envisage an ideal world. Ray Bradbury’s There Will Come Soft Rains (1950), part of his anthology The Martian Chronicles, demonstrates the influence of technology and nature on mankind, and how it has contributed to our perspective of future utopias. The context of the use of destructive technology in World War II, especially the atomic bomb is used
The similes used by the speaker help depict his lover’s image. He compares the movement of the separate strands of her hair like goats traveling down the side of a mountain. The speaker also compares when her teeth first appear as she smiles like a flock of sheep that arise after being washed. In his similes, the depiction of the flock of animals is repeated by the speaker in order to show that his lover is very fertile and the two should stick together. This section of the text is similar to the other parts of the poem since the two lovers are completely infatuated with one another and enjoy expressing their emotions.

The song “Young Dumb & Broke” by Khalid holds the message that a person should accept their characteristics, even if the point they are at is not ideal. He sings, “Yea, we’re just young, dumb and broke, but we still got love to give.” This line expresses that even if a person has bad characteristics, such as being “dumb and broke,” they still have a purpose in the world.

In last couple year’s evidence of water on mars has grown exponentially. The geography of Mars suggests that water was once there. This is because they have found runoff channels in the southern highlands and outflow channels that are almost exact to how they are on Earth, which obviously does have water. The Mars Reconnaissance Observer and Mars Express found deposits of clay in the southern highlands that some researchers say is a strong sign that water was there. Some others argue that the clay could be formed by other elements on Mars, such as wind. Also, the Mars Express detected hydrated’ chemical compounds in the surface of rocks over large areas, which means it
The song “Just the way you are” written and sung by singer and songwriter Bruno Mars is about the authors love towards his girlfriend and how perfect she is. Within his song, “Just the way you are”, Mars denotes certain ordinary aspects of this girl (her lips, hair, laugh) that the author truly adores. In “Just the way you are”, Mars promotes the idea that a woman should be told that she is beautiful just the way she is by using repetition and imagery. To initiate the author's idea of beautiful regarding his girlfriends physical and emotional looks, Mars incorporates repetition relating the girlfriend´s laugh to the adjective sexy.
First, the poet uses metre, a style that emphasizes the use of a specific structure, which is an appropriate way of presenting poems with positive themes such as love. In this case, the poet achieves metre through the use of a uniform number of syllables in every line of the first stanza (10 syllables per line). This approach not only makes the poem memorable in recitation and listening but also relaxes the listener which is important in understanding the subject matter. Petrach uses a qualitative metre, which concentrates on the use of uniform syllabic arrangement. As a result, he creates an aesthetic euphony thus making the listener and the reciter to enjoy the presentation of the poem. The technique is appropriate in the presentation of a love sonnet. Equally, the first two stanzas have four lines each, but the last two stanzas have three lines each. This aspect aligns with the two perspectives presented in the poem, the first being his great affection for Laura, and the second is an expression of the pain he experiences as a result of the unreciprocated love. Furthermore, he has been unable to express his feelings to her, which compounds his pain evident in the words “I had love's tinder in my breast unburned, was it a wonder if it kindled there?” (Lines 8 – 9).
but I think it’s so sexy”. As well as in the Chorus, he says, “ The whole world stops and stares for a while”. Through the use of personification, Bruno Mars shows how he
The music is soft as we dance the time away. Dance the pain away. Dance all of the outside world away. He becomes me, as I become him. Our faces seem to become more beautiful, or least his face does. he tells me that my face does the same, I don't quite know whether or not I should quite believe him. I want to, I will learn to make myself believe him. He's done me no wrong so far.
Analyzing the word, "beautiful" in this stanza, one should perceive that she is not actually singing about the outside of her, but what she consists of emotionally and mentally on the inside. She reveals that her thoughts and emotions are of worth and value and they are of her opinion. They are consumed through her, and no one else and if anyone disagrees, she does not take that into affect. Her diction is actually pretty precise. To quote a famous cliché, beauty is not skin deep. She explains that the beauty is the sentiment.
