Thankfully to this experiences in her life she was able to transformed them into wonderful written pieces. Since Julia went through the experience of adapting to a different country, culture and language, in this poem she tries to portray what Spanish feels to her and she wants her readers to know this in English with a hint of Spanish, which to me is like a cherry on top. This poem is about the feelings and emotions a person has with two different languages and how hard sometimes is to adapt. We see that when she mentions "the sound Spanish wash over me like warm island waters as I say your soothing names". Spanish feels like home; warm, inviting, comforting, here she relates her country to names in Spanish that make her feel at home and also gives me a glimpse of been
Letter from His Coy Mistress Coming Out of the Shadow (To His Coy Mistress, female body&otherness) Dear Andrew, I have read your poem the other day and ever since I’m thinking what to say in response to that. No matter what, I must say that it was pretty impressive, well-thought and well-written; thank you. I wanted to write this letter to you because it is easier this way for me to keep my thoughts organized and transfer them to you clearly. I'm going to take the liberty of assuming that I am this "coy mistress" and it wasn't a mistake that I've received the poem since there is nothing spesific in this poem that it was for me; not my name, not my traits, nothing. It's as if this poem could be sent to twenty girls and all of them could think that it was written only for them.
To His Coy Mistress The poem, To His Coy Mistress, by Andrew Marvell brings out some actions that some of us have experienced or even thought about in this concise poem. This poem is very appealing to the male senses and what some make are like. Some women could be thought of when this is read. Andrew Marvell puts it in words that make it seem as if it was very acceptable. In stanza one Mark Taylor stated that “thou” and “you” appear interchangeable: “Thou by the Indian Ganges side/ Shouldst rubies find” and “An hundred years should go to praise/ Thine eye, and on the forehead gaze” but “I would/love you ten years before the flood/ and you should, if you please, refuse,” “And the last age should show your heart,” and “Lady, you deserve this state.” (Taylor, Mark The Explicator.
Zach, Addressing the Assignment: You did pretty well here over all, I’d probably give you a B-. You comprehend the topic well as well as meet the requirements. However, I see more of explanations of or from your sources than I do your own ideas. As well as there wasn’t any reference at all to the handouts & readings that was assigned in coincided with the essay. Even though they weren’t a requirement mentioning them & making a few connections would help your paper along.
The feeling that I have when writing is a very joyous one because it is my nonverbal communication to express my emotions and thoughts without the critism of the outside world. Writing is truly an art that takes practice and concentration, and once you have accomplished this skill, you will succeed in the process of writing. To begin with, the experience that I have had as a writer were both good and bad. They were good because I was able to earn good grades on my essays in school, I made excellent pen pal friends because of my ability to write and I was able to survive my teenage years with the writings that took place in my diary. Writing was my safe haven and it always cheered me up because of the fact that I could transfer my thoughts from my mind and unto a sheet of paper that would hold memories of a lifetime!
So after analyzing, the poem myself and researching a couple analysis’s by differencing authors, the theme began to unravel. As I further analyzed the poem the my understanding of the theme grew. I think the theme of this poem is a very important one, and the way the message was written by Frost, having the whole poem basically be a metaphor, made it a really enjoyable read. Some poems are very long and are stories, and are quite complex and some use words that I need to Google before understanding the line (cough cough Shakespeare) but Fire and Ice was pretty simple but still got the message out well, in an efficient and smart way. All in all I enjoyed this poem a lot, which made the task of completing the assignment not as strenuous and boring as I expected.
It was easy to teach, it fitted the overriding style of teaching with which they were familiar, it helped students strengthen their memory and it was used across many generations. (Ryan, 1997, p. 29-33) The question and answer format catechism was fairly easy to teach as usually it was the source of their own religious instruction. Also, as it was simply ‘questions and answers’ it did not require any further explanation. Everything that needed to be learnt was printed on the page. Teachers were not required to be ‘skilled instructors’ and the method of teaching was rather obvious and uncomplicated.
Views of Death “When Death Comes,” by Mary Oliver, is the best poem I read in our class. The poem was clear and easy to comprehend; it had similes and good comparisons; it spoke about living life to the fullest; and it was inspirational. I thought the poet was masterful in describing what she wanted to accomplish and to feel once her life was over. Using a first-person technique to articulate what she wanted from life was also effective. The phrase that was used to begin the poem, “When Death Comes,” was repeated four times to let the reader be ready for what was to come after that.
