    Sylvia Plath’s Daddy is addressed to the speaker’s father. The speaker describes the father as a looming, unhuman force that stifles her.

    The significance of the ballad is the manner by which individuals truly and metaphorically fabricate dividers and obstructions between each other. Ice demonstrates that occasionally it is completely superfluous to put such a large number of endeavors and work in working of something, which is really pointless. What's more, perhaps not "Great wall make great neighbors," but rather some other critical things as regard and consideration do. All neighbors' work that they do each time, helps us to remember

    We walk down old, crumbling stairs to see a white sand beach and blue, sinuous waters ahead. Every step down we take, the distinct smell of the water enters our noses and exits clean and untouched as we inhale out. On the beach, families are sitting on their blankets and folding chairs, with their umbrellas open to hide them from the harmful rays of the sun. Kids run around and splash each other in the cold waters of Lake Michigan. We find a nice spot on the beach, lay down our towels, and sit down
