    I particularly liked the 10th poem by James J.Y. Liu and the 15th poem, “En la Ermita del Parque de los Venados” by Octavio Paz, perhaps I like the Spanish poem because I am working with Spanish, but I can also sense more the creative freedom that the author took. I think the 10th is more accurate, and I think the 15th takes its own route. The 10th poem contains an aura of a solitude; all the reader can encounter along the way is nature interacting with nature. In addition, when I read this poem

    Life after death is a straightforward concept put into many different forms, but Walt Whitman’s idea of life after death compared to the Bible’s is something that should be studied carefully. The Bible’s idea of an afterlife and Walt Whitman’s reincarnation can be quite similar to certain principles and theories. In fact, in the poem “from Song of Myself” Whitman states “they are alive and well somewhere” (120). In the same way, the Bible says in John 17:3 “you will fill me with joy in your presence

    The beautiful American landscape provides inspiration for countless American works of literature and art. Robert Frost, an American poet who wrote about rural New England, was one of these people.

He uses concise words and phrases like “a yellow wood” to describe the setting for the poem (Frost 1). When he talks about the two paths, the varying explanations give his

    William Blake and Charlotte Smith were two romantic poets who both shared many qualities in their poetry as they did differences. For example, Blake and Smith's poems both show a strong sense of melancholy. Smith expresses this tone in The Sea View, “Charged deep with death, upon the waves far seen Move the war-freighted ships; and fierce and red Flash their destructive fires--The mangled dead And dying victims then pollute the flood. Ah! thus man spoils glorious works with blood!” Similarly, Blake

    “The Flea” by John Donne “The Flea” by John Donne is a poem about romance. The narrator, a man, uses a flea to argue his point of having premarital sex.

    To some people, the thought of reading poetry makes them cringe, but when thinking about music, they are more than okay with it. Poetry, unlike most music, requires deeper thought that can have a much greater impact on emotions. I have chosen a song and a poem with similar themes to compare them and see if they are actual poems. The song I chose is “Welcome to the Black Parade” by My Chemical Romance, and the poem “Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night” by Dylan Thomas. They are both literature that
