metaphors also become more evident once discovering that she is pregnant. It is very humorous when Plath mentions that she is “a melon strolling on two tendrils,” not only does this contribute the the imagery of the poem, but it also creates a very humorous mood.

The Summer of '62 Age thirteen is a special time for boys. Sorry girls, I don't have a clue how it goes for you. I'm not leaving you out, I just don't know and don't feel confident to comment.
