The word “dove” suggests she is both beautiful and a figure of peace. Shakespeare represents strong feeling of love and how it is effectively presented through this quote. This is ironic because her family is the Montague’s enemy and conflict before peace arrives between the two families. The “crows” could represent the Capulet’s who are the Montague’s enemies, but can also represent the other females at the ball. It can be said that Romeo uses the word “crows” to contrast Juliet to the other females; it is evident that he finds her to be one of the beautiful beings.

As writing a sonnet, composing a rondeau is demanding exercise for a poet. Analysis: * In Flanders Fields: features the alliteration that helps structure this poem throughout. * “…the poppies grow”: poppies were a symbol for death in war before World War One, but it was McCrae’s poem that helped to popularize the poppy as a sign of remembrance for the Great War. Poppies have been associated with the battlefield since at least the Napoleonic wars, when poppies would thrive and grow on the fields freshly manured by blood.
