It's almost like singing, "If you're happy and you know it, think again!" What was a carefree bliss for the speaker turns out to be a fleeting joy that he ever can't recapture. What a bummer. Stanza 1 Summary Get out the microscope, because we’re going through this poem line-by-line.

In the young and carefree, time has no affect on the mind of the child; however, at a certain age, one will realize that life is too short and that opportunities should be taken advantage of. A.E. Housman's "Loveliest of Trees” teaches this life-changing lesson. With rhetorical devices, word choices, and end rhymes embedded in this poem, Housman is able to successfully communicate in his poem that life is short and a person should live his/her life full of his/her favorite sights. In the first stanza, the speaker describes a beautiful and serene scene that he is enjoying while taking a walk through the forest.
His work with Stephen shows this as he opens Stephen up to new ideas and lets him experience new beautiful places like Sachi's garden. Matsu is the type of person that takes pleasure in aiding others in their journey through maturity and cultural growth. When Matsu takes Stephen to Sachi's garden, it is to enlighten him on scenery that he is not at all used to seeing. Stephen is amazed as he takes, "another long look at Sachi's garden before I (he) turned around and followed" (41). Stephen is taken back in awe by this beautiful garden in front of him and it is thanks to Matsu that Stephen can broaden his artistic self.

Steinbeck creates a beautiful and natural setting by his use of figurative language. “Willows fresh and green with every spring” and “leaves lie deep and so crisp” create an image in the mind of the reader that evokes a calm and peaceful mood. Steinbeck then uses the setting to introduce the two main protagonists. The arrival of the protagonists interrupts the harmony of the river bank, but before any sign of them is visible or within earshot, the birds fly away, the rabbits scatter, and all the other animals flee the area. This lets us know that something or someone is coming.
God gives us his very of the perfect world though His creation. He shows us exactly how things where. I believe that as they were then is as it could have been today is it was not for the fall. Moses writes in Genesis 1:11, “Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” He provided a way for plants to reproduce naturally. They did not have to change or evolve from the way God made them, they were perfect the way they were.
Dandelions are also known to be happy flowers so this sets the mood in a more soothing and calming place. The poet also uses imagery to lighten the mood up. “And a jumble of skirts spilled onto the ploughed grass,” could be portrayed in a mental image of the clothes scattering around from the laundry truck. It makes the mood less tense because instead of rather describing the horrible images of the accident, the poet decides to describe the little details of it. There was also an internal rhyme in that line which was “skirts and shirts”.
The Nagys family displayed how caring they are towards one another. For example, they help each other with everything they do, such as cleaning the house and taking care of the farm and the animals on the farm. Also, they all get along together no matter what they are doing, which evidences how much they love each other. The Singing Tree demonstrates that people from different cultures may live and work together for the sake of peace and harmony. Even though the men are from varied ethical backgrounds, they all teamed up and fought together in the war.
