The use of “...we are, for as long as we are.” (Line 16 and 17) Shows that Duffy is inviting her readers into the poem to help reflect upon how she feels. The formats of these pieces are all varied. Shakespeare firstly has written a play. However, within his play he writes a few sonnets to show the feelings of love between both Romeo and Juliet. One of the famous sonnets in the play is in act 1 scene 5, where Romeo shows his true feelings for Juliet during their first encounter.
In the poem “Singh Song!”, the poet uses repetition to show the persona of Singh as being very personal and intimate when he spends the little time that he has with his “newly bride”. The repetition of the word “baby” tells the reader that Singh is happy being married to his wife and that he gives her a high status in his life. The repetition of “my bride” is triple refrained which perhaps suggests that Singh has a surprising nature about his wife. This creates an interesting character as it tells us that he is willing to stop working and go against his father’s orders just to spend time with his wife. Despite the criticism he receives from his customers, Singh seems to hold his wife as a major and main priority in his life and could suggest that his emotional and mental wellbeing depends on his wife.
Singh Song is a first-person love song by a young man about his wife. He manages his father's shop but keeps sneaking upstairs to see her instead. He paints a colourful picture of their love and lives, challenging stereotypical ideas about Indian culture. Form and structure As it says in the title, this poem is a song - it has a strong lyrical voice, and depends on rhyme and rhythm, as well as repetition to create a sense of a refrain or chorus. The structure does not stay the same throughout, but cycles through a number of different stanza patterns, finishing in four two-line stanzas that follow a conversation between the narrator and his bride.
Part 4 commences with a break from the Mariner’s story, the wedding guest has interjected as he “fear(s) thee ancient Mariner!” which is unsurprising considering the previous part recounted solely the story of the Ancient Mariner. When the wedding guest says ‘I fear thee’, ‘I fear thy’, the repetition has been used by Coleridge to covey the wedding’s guest alarm as the repetition creates tension. Similarly when the wedding guest describes the Mariner ‘thou art long, and lank and brown’ by the use of a triplet this too adds to the on going tension. The metaphor ‘brown, as the ribb’d sea-sand’ describes how the Mariner has become so weather beaten it makes him look rather delirious. It also links to nature, this helps the reader to create a clearer image of the Mariner as for so long has be been at sea with deprived of social norms he has almost become part of nature.
Her father doesn’t help the situation because he shields her from the outside world and “chases away potential suitors because none of them are good enough for his daughter” (p.6”A Rose for Emily”). Her father is very controlling of her and this contributes to her being a little off down the road. When she does find a man that she does like in Homer Barron she goes crazy over him despite him being gay. This causes him to kill him when is he is to say that he is not a marrying man. Sarty is

Claudio was too scared to confront Hero and confess his feelings and so Don Pedro promised that he would speak to Leonato about setting them up. But this still scared Claudio and he can’t tell Hero he loves her so Don Pedro said he’ll organise something where he can pretend to be Claudio and fix them up and admit his feelings towards her as Claudio. Personally, I think it might be a bit strange to have the Prince chat up the girl that Claudio loves but as long as his love is returned, everything shall be
Winston suggests they just walk out and never see each other again, to save them from being hopelessly lonely when they are forced to separate. Julia shrugs off the thought, she tells him she’s thought about it before. She tells Winston, “I’m rather good at staying alive.” (Orwell 137) Hope is shared between them as they realize the Ministry can only physically kill them; they cannot make them believe anything. This belief that Big Brother and the state of the country are unnatural and wrong is a belief they are not supposed to have. Julia means love while Winston means betraying
This differs from how Lily acts because Lily relies on others to help make her happy. One of the reasons that June does not want to marry Neil is because she does not want to admit that she might actually need him. She is afraid of letting someone know that she needs them because the last time she fell in love he left her. “Ever since Melvin Edwards backed out of your wedding all those years back, you’ve been afraid of love, refusing to take a chance” (211). August knows that June is afraid to fall in love again because the last man that she fell in love with left her.
A hero needs loyalty in order to be trusted in times of trouble. Odysseus is disloyal to his wife Penelope when he gives in to the seduction of 2 other women; on the other hand, Penelope has been faithfully waiting for years in hope of Odysseus’s return (throughout X). Another example of Odysseus being disloyal is when he talks negatively about his crewmembers when they are trying to help him, “My men were mutinous, fools, on stones of wine (IX, 50-51)”. Odysseus’s crew were trying to help him, which Odysseus knew, but they didn’t succeed to his expectations and that causes him to talk down upon them even after they tried. This shows disloyalty towards his people who are very loyal to him.
