What is the literal meaning of this poem?
Into my heart an air that kills From yon far country blows: What are those blue remembered hills, What spires, what farms are those? That is the land of lost content, I see it shining plain, The happy highways where I went And cannot come again. By A. E. Housman. Thanks.
What is the real meaning of this poem?
The poem is WEEP NO MORE FOR WHAT IS PAST by Sir William Davenant. These are the words: WEEP no more for what is past, For time in motion makes such haste He hath no leisure to descry Those errors which he passeth by. If we consider accident, And how repugnant unto sense It pays desert with bad event, We shall disparage Providence. What do you guys think these words mean?
Meaning of this poem...?
if you can answer any of these questions PLEASE let me know: what does this poem mean exactly? what is the evening star a symbol of? what is the poem's theme? here is the poem: Evening Star by: Edgar Allen Poe 'Twas noontide of summer, And mid-time of night; And stars, in their orbits, Shone pale, thro' the light Of the brighter, cold moon, 'Mid planets her slaves, Herself in the Heavens, Her beam on the waves. I gazed awhile On her cold smile; Too cold- too cold for me- There pass'd, as a shroud, A fleecy cloud, And I turned away to thee, Proud Evening Star, In thy glory afar, And dearer thy beam shall be; For joy to my heart Is the proud part Thou bearest in Heaven at night, And more I admire Thy distant fire, Than that colder, lowly light. please help! thanks
What is the meaning of the poem i cry by tupac?
Tupac wrote straight from his heart. I Cry is one of the best poems by him. Tupac was always surrounded by people but the only people he really cared about were never around. He wrote a poem about Jada Pinkett Smith so it is obvious that she was friends with him. Pac also cried about all the racism hunger police brutality and poverty he saw when he was growing up. And he grew up without a father and he said so himself "A woman cannot comfort a child like a man can, A woman cannot teach a boy about manhood like a man can". Tupac has had an all around hell for a life and that is the main inspiration for his music. His poems are wonderful yet everyone considers him a thug. I Cry is basically why he would prefer being dead rather than alive. When he says "Sometimes when I'm alone, I Cry, because I'm on my own" he didn't have to many good influences in his life and certainly nobody he could look up to. When he says "The tears I cry are bitter and warm. They flow with life but take no form I Cry because my heart is torn." He didn't really have to many people to love. He had his mom and Jada and she was dating Will so how would that have worked out? I think you can work out the rest of the poem and I hope you take the time to appreciate because it really is a wonderful poem.
What is the meaning of the poem "The Sky is Low" by Emily Dickinson?
To me it means that most people get discouraged by life. I think that the meaning of this poem is to reassure people that if they only believe in themselves they could touch the sky.
