Emily Dickinson. Poets.org. Academy of American Poets. 2011. http://www.poets.org/poet.php/prmPID/155
Emily Dickinson lived from December 10, 1830 to May 15, 1886, and was an unmarried American poet from Amherst, Massachusetts. She was considered a recluse, and rarely even left her room as she grew older. Most of her poetry was published posthumously.
I never saw a moor
I never saw the sea;
Yet know I how the heather looks,
And what a wave must be.
I never spoke with God
Nor visited in heaven;
Yet certain am I of the spot
As if the checks were given.
Emily Dickinson's poem "I never saw a moor" illustrates the certainty of the narrator's belief. The poem explains that the narrator has not seen either field or ocean, but knows of the existence of each. The second stanza of the poem uses the idea of the first to explain further how it relates to belief. According to the narrator, not seeing God or heaven does not disprove the existence of either because the first stanza definitely shows existence even though the objects have never been viewed. By pairing two earthly, factual objects never before seen by the narrator with two objects that no one has ever seen on this plane of existence, strengthens her argument that there is more to belief than simply seeing something.
In order for the poem to run smoothly and succinctly, the poet includes three poetic devices to further illustrate her point and illicit emotion: repetition, assonance and alliteration. Repetition is used in the "I never" and "yet". By repeating these two segments in the two stanzas it ties the two ideas together further. As soon as the reader gets to "I never saw God", the message begins to become clear that she is relating the two ideas in each stanza. The "yet" further solidifies the notion, because the reader should know that since made her point with the first "yet" I stanza one, she will do so again in stanza two.
Assonance and alliteration are used to generate flow within the poem. The line "and what a wave must be" gives the sense of the rolling sea with the lower case "a" and the "w" repetition. It almost rushes the reader into the next stanza, which could be considered further proof of her knowledge of waves. This poetic device allows the reader to feel as they are rolling off a wave at the end of the first stanza and rushing into the next just like a wave crashes along the shore.
“Leisure” by W.H. Davies
What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare?—
No time to stand beneath the boughs, And stare as long as sheep and cows:
No time to see, when woods we pass, Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass:
No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like skies at night:
No time to turn at Beauty's glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance:
No time to wait till her mouth can Enrich that smile her eyes began?
A poor life this if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare.
Analysis:
T- happy days, summer, sunshine, relaxation
P- mad that there is “no time” to enjoy life
C- he is asking for people to just stop and stare, “no time to turn at beauty’s glance”
A- impatient, wanting more
S- 5th stanza
T- shameful, mad, frustrated, sarcasm
T- Wasting Time
Found: alliteration, imagery, repetition, meter
Biography:
William H. Davies was born in 1871 in Newport, Monmouthshire, Wales. Unfortunately for his grandmother (who raised him after his parents decided that it have been better for him) he was constantly aching to travel to America (and everywhere else for that matter), in his early years. The most important incident that started his poetic streak was the loss of his right foot, while trying to jump onto a train.

Alfred, Lord Tennyson
Alfred Tennyson was born in Somersby, Lincolnshire, on August 5, 1809.He began to write poetry at an early age and modeled them after the poetic style of Lord Byron.Some of his best work was written when his best friend, Arthur Hallam, passed away.
“Break, Break, Break”
Break, break, break,
On thy cold gray stones, O Sea!
And I would that my tongue could utter
The thoughts that arise in me.
O well for the fisherman's boy,
That he shouts with his sister at play!
O well for the sailor lad,
That he sings in his boat on the bay!
And the stately ships go on
To their haven under the hill;
But O for the touch of a vanish'd hand,
And the sound of a voice that is still!
Break, break, break,
At the foot of thy crags, O Sea!
But the tender grace of a day that is dead
Will never come back to me.
This poem by Alfred, Lord Tennyson illustrates the narrators view of the way the world works. The poem explains the way the world goes on even as his life is stopped due to his grief at the loss of someone important. He seas the way the sea never changes and all the lives that revolve around the sea continue to go on.
She uses repetition to illustrate the way the sea never changes or stops. She also uses assonance helps the poem flow. He talks about how the ships sale one, the fisherman's shouting and playing with his sister, and the sailor lad singing in his boat. All of their lives revolve around the unchanging sea, but he can't even say the words that come to his mind. This poem speaks of loss and the way grieving people deal with the way the world moves on even when they feel they can't.

“A Prayer”
My God (oh, let me call Thee mine,
Weak, wretched sinner though I be),
My trembling soul would fain be Thine;
My feeble faith still clings to Thee.
Not only for the Past I grieve,
The Future fills me with dismay;
Unless Thou hasten to relieve,
Thy suppliant is a castaway.
I cannot say my faith is strong,
I dare not hope my love is great;
But strength and love to Thee belong;
Oh, do not leave me desolate!
I know I owe my all to Thee;
Oh, TAKE the heart I cannot give!
Do Thou my strength--my Saviour be,
And MAKE me to Thy glory live.

Wendell Berry
The Peace of Wild Things
When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds. I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water. And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light. For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.
T- nature, peace, quiet
P- It talks about nature and being free
C- about being free and being outside in nature
A- Happy, Peaceful
S- .....it doesn’t shift
T- nature, peaceful, quiet, freedom
T- Freedom, Happiness, Wild
The TPCASTT i made was mostly right. Its about nature, life and serenity. It’s also about Freedom, Happiness, Peacefulness, and the Wilderness.
It has some poetic devices too. It has ‘Rest in his beauty’, which is probably talking about god’s creations and how beautiful nature is. There is also ‘...who do not tax teir lives with forethought of grief’, which could mean that they don’t waste their lives thinking about what could have happened and regretting all of your past decisions.
Wendell was born in Newcastle, Kentucky. He graduated at the University of Kentucky. He has taught and written more than 30 books of poetry and essays as well as novels.

Dylan Marlais Thomas was born on October 27, 1914, in South Wales . He loved the sounds of nursery rhymes.Thomas was a neurotic, sickly child who shied away from school and preferred reading on his own.
Dylan Thomas
"Not From This Anger"
Not from this anger, anticlimax after
Refusal struck her loin and the lame flower
Bent like a beast to lap the singular floods
In a land strapped by hunger
Shall she receive a bellyful of weeds
And bear those tendril hands I touch across
The agonized, two seas.
Behind my head a square of sky sags over
The circular smile tossed from lover to lover
And the golden ball spins out of the skies;
Not from this anger after
Refusal struck like a bell under water
Shall her smile breed that mouth, behind the mirror,
That burns along my eyes.
TPCASTT:
The title "Not in This Anger" makes me think of someone that's kind on the outside but within, there's a boiling anger for someone. It also makes me think of someone trying not to mad at silly things. Thomas is trying to say that there are other important things to be angry about. He's being rejected during a moment between someone but he's explaining that he can't be angry about it. There's sadness in the world that tops his rejection. "In a land strapped by a hunger" tells how people are suffering and so he just can't be mad that he's being denied his love. The deep meaning, in this moment is definitely the hardship in the world and how you cannot be angry over little things. You can't be angry at lost love or rejection or things that are replaceable.
Pain, sadness and rejection is an obvious attitude in the poem. The shift in "Not From This Anger" is the fourth to the last line. Before that the author tells about his rejection and then the hardships people endure. In the fourth line he says you cannot be angry and selfish about your own pain. After reading and analyzing this poem I've concluded that the poem most definitely says there's other thing in the world for 'real' anger. I'd define the theme as Depressing love because of the suffering and his rejection of his love.
Personification and alliteration are evident in this poem. Thomas compares poverty in the world as a 'beast'. 'Behind my head a square of sky sags over' is alliteration because of Square of Sky Sags. He uses real depth using these devices. The alliteration phrase gets me thinking about one of those thunder clouds buzzing over your head wherever you go. The feeling of depression and deep anger for corrupt people boils my blood. I really love the way he writes because it reminds me of how people think.

Alan Seeger was born in 1888, and died at Belloy-en-Santerre on July 4th, 1916. He graduated from Harvard in 1910, and then live in Greenwich Village for two years. Here, he wrote poetry and enjoyed it.
At the Tomb of Napoleon-
I stood beside his sepulchre whose fame,
Hurled over Europe once on bolt and blast,
Now glows far off as storm-clouds overpast
Glow in the sunset flushed with glorious flame.
Has Nature marred his mould? Can Art acclaim
No hero now, no man with whom men side
As with their hearts' high needs personified?
There are will say, One such our lips could name;
Columbia gave him birth. Him Genius most
Gifted to rule. Against the world's great man
Lift their low calumny and sneering cries
The Pharisaic multitude, the host
Of piddling slanderers whose little eyes
Know not what greatness is and never can.
-Alan Seeger
At the beginning of this poem, he is admiring Napoleons Tomb. For example “ Glow in the sunset flushed with glorious flame.” The poem has a happy mood in the first half of it, but towards the end, it starts to turn. It talks about how everyone is sad because of Napoleons death and how no one can ever be as great as he was.
This poem also talks all about Napoleon and what he meant to people. It says that Columbia gave him birth. I assume this means that he is from Colombia and he was a well known person there. It also talks about how he was a ruler saying “Gifted to rule”, but also saying “Against the world’s great man.” So i assume that this means he is a ruler, but has to compete with other people to be one.

Perfect?
How
do you define a word without
concrete meaning? To each
his own, the saying goes, so
why
push to attain an ideal
state of being that no two
random people will agree is
where
you want to be? Faultless.
Finished. Incomparable. People
can never be these, and anyways,
when
did creating a flawless facade
become a more vital goal
than learning to love the person
who
lives inside your skin?
The outside belongs to others.
Only you should decide for you-
what
is perfect. Ellen Hopkins
The poem is titled Perfect because its about the meaning of perfect what it means to the author about being perfect. People always wanting to be prefect or thinking they have to be perfect to please people.
If you reword the poem it goes a little something like this how can you give meaning to a word that means something different to each person? Why be something that people can’t agree what it means to truly be? You can be perfect in your mind, but to someone else you my not be even close to perfect. What you think is perfect isn’t always the same as another person’s meaning. Why would you want to be something other than yourself. Wanting to be perfect never will happen because no body can ever be perfect so don’t feel bad. Why want something you can’t have perfection is simply not attainable. When did people become so obsessed with being perfect and why? how did people get so caught up in something that is just so superficial? People only see the outside they can judge it as much as they want; but as long as your happy with who you are that’s all that matter in the end. You decide what is perfect to you and you can be whatever you want to be.
When I think about the poem questions that’s it cause me to think of are Do you get caught up in the fight to be perfect? Do you try and be something your not because you think it’s what people think is perfect? Are you happy in your one skin? Have you ever been hurt by people because your different?
The poem is honest heartfelt because everybody can relate. People are always trying to be perfect or perfect in their own sense of the word. It’s also somewhat sad and disappointed tone because so many people do get caught up in it. The outcomes aren’t always good it can lead people to do some crazy things.
It turns at the point after the word only where it changes from people not being happy with themselves. To people needing only happiness in themselves so goes from upset to reassured.
Theme of this poem is to be happy with yourself. Do not let other people rule your life because they can judge you all they want but as long as your happy with yourself that’s all that matters.The reason for the title can also be to show perfect is only a word. Perfect has many means to different people but it’s up to you to be what you want.

Biography: Emily Dickinson was born in Amherst, Massachusetts in 1830. She led a life of solitude, and her rare visitors had great impact on her thoughts and writing. She wrote nearly 1800 poems in her lifetime, but none were published until after her death in 1886.
"Hope is the Thing with Feathers"
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all,
And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.
I’ve heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me
TPCASTT:
This poem illustrates the poets belief that hope is something that is always present, and never flees at the sight of a coming storm. She states how she has "heard it in the chillest land, and on the strangest sea", and also in the soul, perhaps her own. She also states that hope never stops singing, and is never intimidated by despair, hate, or violence.
She has an unusual rhyme scheme to her poem; abcb dede fghg. She uses a little alliteration, but nothing else.

She had a younger sister that discovered her poems. Emily Dickinson wasn't famous till after her death.

The poem - The Minefield
He was running with his friend from town to town.
They were somewhere between Prague and Dresden.
He was fourteen. His friend was faster
and knew a shortcut through the fields they could take.
He said there was lettuce growing in one of them,
and they hadn't eaten all day. His friend ran a few lengths ahead,
like a wild rabbit across the grass,
turned his head, looked back once,
and his body was scattered across the field.
My father told us this, one night,
and then continued eating dinner.
He brought them with him—the minefields.
He carried them underneath his good intentions.
He gave them to us—in the volume of his anger,
in the bruises we covered up with sleeves.
In the way he threw anything against the wall—
a radio, that wasn't even ours,
a melon, once, opened like a head.
In the way we still expect, years later and continents away,
that anything might explode at any time,
and we would have to run on alone
with a vision like that
only seconds behind.

Poem: “St. Roach”
For that I never knew you, I only learned to dread you,
for that I never touched you, they told me you are filth,
they showed me by every action to despise your kind;
for that I saw my people making war on you,
I could not tell you apart, one from another,
for that in childhood I lived in places clear of you,
for that all the people I knew met you by
crushing you, stamping you to death, they poured boiling
water on you, they flushed you down,
for that I could not tell one from another
only that you were dark, fast on your feet, and slender.
Not like me.
For that I did not know your poems
And that I do not know any of your sayings
And that I cannot speak or read your language
And that I do not sing your songs
And that I do not teach our children
to eat your food
or know your poems
or sing your songs
But that we say you are filthing our food
But that we know you not at all.
Yesterday I looked at one of you for the first time.
You were lighter that the others in color, that was
neither good nor bad.
I was really looking for the first time.
You seemed troubled and witty.
Today I touched one of you for the first time.
You were startled, you ran, you fled away
Fast as a dancer, light, strange, and lovely to the touch.
I reach, I touch, I begin to know you.
Analysis: This poem talks about the thoughts of what humans have against roaches. She says that people think roaches make a mess of everything. But she is trying to show some sympathy for the roaches. By the end of the poem she has the courage to touch one.
T- bugs, pest
P-Even though I don’t know you. I know I am suppose to hate you. But I don’t think you’re so bad.

The Erl-King by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
WHO rides there so late through the night dark and drear?
The father it is, with his infant so dear;
He holdeth the boy tightly clasp'd in his arm,
He holdeth him safely, he keepeth him warm.
"My son, wherefore seek'st thou thy face thus to hide?"
"Look, father, the Erl-King is close by our side!
Dost see not the Erl-King, with crown and with train?"
"My son, 'tis the mist rising over the plain."
"Oh, come, thou dear infant! oh come thou with me!
Full many a game I will play there with thee;
On my strand, lovely flowers their blossoms unfold,
My mother shall grace thee with garments of gold."
"My father, my father, and dost thou not hear
The words that the Erl-King now breathes in mine ear?"
"Be calm, dearest child, 'tis thy fancy deceives;
'Tis the sad wind that sighs through the withering leaves."
"Wilt go, then, dear infant, wilt go with me there?
My daughters shall tend thee with sisterly care
My daughters by night their glad festival keep,
They'll dance thee, and rock thee, and sing thee to sleep."
"My father, my father, and dost thou not see,
How the Erl-King his daughters has brought here for me?"
"My darling, my darling, I see it aright,
'Tis the aged grey willows deceiving thy sight."
"I love thee, I'm charm'd by thy beauty, dear boy!
And if thou'rt unwilling, then force I'll employ."
"My father, my father, he seizes me fast,
Full sorely the Erl-King has hurt me at last."
The father now gallops, with terror half wild,
He grasps in his arms the poor shuddering child;
He reaches his courtyard with toil and with dread,--
The child in his arms finds he motionless, dead.

Biography:
Octavio Paz was born in Mexico City in 1914 to a family of Spanish and native Mexican descent. Pablo Neruda encouraged Paz. Paz began his poetic career in his teens. His later work shows an ever-deepening intelligence and complexity as it investigates the thought of religion, art, politics, and the role of the individual.
Poem: Between going and staying the day wavers
Between going and staying the day wavers,
In love with its own transparency.
The circular afternoon is now a bay
where the world in stillness rocks.
All is visible and all elusive,
all is near and can't be touched.
Paper, book, pencil, glass,
rest in the shade of their names.
Time throbbing in my temples repeats
the same unchanging syllable of blood.
The light turns the indifferent wall
into a ghostly theater of reflections.
I find myself in the middle of an eye,
watching myself in its blank stare.
The moment scatters. Motionless,
I stay and go: I am a pause.

T: Its about whether to stay or go.
P: How something can be near but at the same time far

T: He’s confused doesnt know what to do.
Paragraph about the poem:
I think this poem is about making choices. He doesn’t know whether to do one thing or the other. He’s unsure of what to do. The time is like stopped maybe waiting to see what’s gonna happen, whats he gonna decide. He can see everything but feels like he can’t reach for it and have it. He’s very undeceive about what he wants.

"Nothing Gold Can Stay"
Robert Frost
Nature's first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
Robert Frost’s “Nothing Gold Can Stay” illustrates the belief of the author that nothing perfect can stay. He talks of the beginning of nature as being gold. He relates this not only to nature, but to Eden as well. My interpretation of this poem is that it is the nature of beauty and perfection to last only briefly and then become bland, or fade away entirely. He refers to Eden in this poem which was, although briefly, a golden, flowering place until the incident with Eve and the apple. Even Eden’s beauty and perfection didn’t sustain. He also exemplifies that although a leaf is beautiful at the beginning, when it's over, the leaf is not a flower, nor gold, just a leaf.
Robert Frost uses alliteration to his advantage in his attempt to convey the message that perfection cannot and will not last. His use of alliteration is prevalent in lines 3 and 7. Line 3, ”Her hardest hue to hold,” uses alliteration to show the prevalence of perfection and beauty being the hardest to persist. Line 7, “So dawn goes down to day,” uses alliteration as well to show that perfection and beauty does not last and eventually subsides.

My Indian In-laws by Belinda Subraman
I remember India:
palm trees, monkey families,
fresh lime juice in the streets,
the sensual inundation
of sights and smells
and excess in everything.
I was exotic and believable there.
I was walking through dirt
in my sari,
to temples of the deities
following the lead
of my Indian in-laws.
I was scooping up fire with my hands,
glancing at idols that held no meaning for me,
being marked by the ash.
They smiled at the Western woman,
acting religious, knowing
it was my way of showing respect.
It was an adventure for me
but an arm around their culture for them.
To me it was living a dream
I knew I could wake up from.
To them it was the willingness
to be Indian that pleased.
We were holding hands
across a cultural cosmos,
knowing there were no differences
hearts could not soothe.
They accepted me
as I accepted them,
baffled but in love
with our wedded mystery.

"The Ride"
The horse beneath me seemed
To know what course to steer
Through the horror of snow I dreamed,
And so I had no fear,
Nor was I chilled to death
By the wind’s white shudders, thanks
To the veils of his patient breath
And the mist of sweat from his flanks.
It seemed that all night through,
Within my hand no rein
And nothing in my view
But the pillar of his mane,
I rode with magic ease
At a quick, unstumbling trot
Through shattering vacancies
On into what was not,
Till the weave of the storm grew thin,
With a threading of cedar-smoke,
And the ice-blind pane of an inn
Shimmered, and I awoke.
How shall I now get back
To the inn-yard where he stands,
Burdened with every lack,
And waken the stable-hands
To give him, before I think
That there was no horse at all,
Some hay, some water to drink,
A blanket and a stall?

Anythig Is Possible
Anything is possible, if you think it is worthwhile
If you're willing to go the distance, to go the extra mile.
With determination and effort, you can often achieve more
Because you don't always get what you wish, but what you work for.
Dreams can become challenging, but no matter what the cost
Strive to complete the task before you, and you'll never end up lost.
So bring with you your goals, and leave your doubts behind
Whether you think you can or can't, you certainly will find
You'll be right either way--so never quit, and this is why:
You'll never become a failure, until you fail to try.

A dull sound, varying now and again by Forrest Hamer
And then we began eating corn starch,
chalk chewed wet into sirup. We pilfered
Argo boxes stored away to stiffen
my white dress shirt, and my cousin
and I played or watched TV, no longer annoyed
by the din of never cooling afternoons.
On the way home from church one fifth Sunday,
shirt outside my pants, my tie clipped on
its wrinkling collar, I found a new small can of snuff,
packed a chunk inside my cheek, and tripped
from the musky sting making my head ache,
giving me shivers knowing my aunt hid cigarettes
in the drawer under her slips,
that drawer the middle one on the left
Forrest Hamer was born in 1959. He lived in Oakland California and he wad educated at Yale and Berkley. Forrest Hamer is African American and he has won lots of awards. Examples of the awards would be the Beatrice Hawley Award.
This poem that i chose was probably one of the more interesting ones taht he wrote in my opinion. Every time i reread this poem i get a different meaning to it. When the poem says " i found a new small can of snuff: i think of his aunt maybe trying to frame him so he gets in trouble? But i didnt know what the phrase " musky sting " meant so i googled it and i couldnt find what it meant. But i did find out what "musk" meant and it means " a strong smelling reddish substance that has been secreted by the male deer. Also used in territory marking and used for perfume" So as he stuck the chunk of snuff in his mouth the musk got to him and gave him a headache and he knew it was his aunt because the perfume was made from musk and there was some musk in the snuff.
Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops.
Weakened by my soulful cries.
Does my haughtiness offend you?
Don't you take it awful hard
'Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines
Diggin' in my own back yard.

Dante Alighieri was a great Italian poet. And lived from 1265-1321 in Venice Italy where he created his poems.
Love and the Gentle Heart by : Dante Alighieri
Love and the gentle heart are one thing,
just as the poet says in his verse,
each from the other one as well divorced
as reason from the mind’s reasoning.
Nature craves love, and then creates love king,
and makes the heart a palace where he’ll stay,
perhaps a shorter or a longer day,
breathing quietly, gently slumbering.
Then beauty in a virtuous woman’s face
makes the eyes yearn, and strikes the heart,
so that the eyes’ desire’s reborn again,
and often, rooting there with longing, stays,
Till love, at last, out of its dreaming starts.
Woman’s moved likewise by a virtuous man.
T. love, gentle hearts, marriage
P. love is different from having a gentle heart
C. he's saying people need love
“Nature craves love,”
A. love, care
S. 3rd stanza
T. love, divorce, cheating

Emily Bronte (1818-1848) was born in Thornton, Yorkshire, in the north of England. Her father, the Rev. Patrick Bronte, had moved from Ireland to Weatherfield, in Essex, where he taught in Sunday school. Eventually he settled in Yorkshire, the centre of his life's work. In 1812 he married Maria Branwell of Penzance. Patrick Bronte loved poetry, he published several books of prose and verse and wrote to local newspapers. In 1820 he moved to Hawort, a poverty-stricken little town at the edge of a large tract of moorland, where he served as a rector and chairman of the parish committee.
Love and Friendship by Emily Bronte
Love is like the wild rose-briar,
Friendship like the holly-tree --
The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms
But which will bloom most contantly?
The wild-rose briar is sweet in the spring,
Its summer blossoms scent the air;
Yet wait till winter comes again
And who wil call the wild-briar fair?
Then scorn the silly rose-wreath now
And deck thee with the holly's sheen,
That when December blights thy brow
He may still leave thy garland green.

Small Town
I was walking in this small town
On my way i saw a very nice car
The Driver was heading to the bar
So i followed him around
Then there was a loud sound
And i rellized it came from the bar
So i go into the crowd
And they all shout
Get out
Get out
So i mind about and get out
I seen the police and i told them just look around
So they looked around

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C._S._Lewis
Biography:
(29 November 1898 – 22 November 1963), commonly referred to as C. S. Lewis and known to his friends and family as "Jack", was an Irish-born British[1] novelist, academic, medievalist, literary critic, essayist, lay theologian and Christian apologist. He is well known for his fictional work, especially The Screwtape Letters, The Chronicles of Narnia and The Space Trilogy.
Lewis was a close friend of J. R. R. Tolkien, and both authors were leading figures in the English faculty at Oxford University and in the informal Oxford literary group known as the "Inklings".
An Expostulation by C. S. Lewis
Why did you lure us on like this,
Light-year on light-year, through the abyss,
Building (as though we cared for size!)
Empires that cover galaxies
If at the journey's end we find
The same old stuff we left behind,
Well-worn Tellurian stories of
Crooks, spies, conspirators, or love,
Whose setting might as well have been
The Bronx, Montmartre, or Bedinal Green?
Why should I leave this green-floored cell,
Roofed with blue air, in which we dwell,
Unless, outside its guarded gates,
Long, long desired, the Unearthly waits
Strangeness that moves us more than fear,
Beauty that stabs with tingling spear,
Or Wonder, laying on one's heart
That finger-tip at which we start
As if some thought too swift and shy
For reason's grasp had just gone by?
Found:Hyperbole, Simile.
The mood of the poem is serious, and questioning. This is a very hard poem to understand, so I'm not sure what it is really about. He has written many poems and this is one of the more simple ones. But there is some very deep meaning to this writing I can tell. I would say that it has something to do with science fiction.
I found a couple of Literary Devices, they were a Simile and a hyperbole. The hyperbole was when he said "Empires that cover galaxies". The simile was when he said "as though we cared for size" he is comparing building for size.

Thomas Merton was a poet, monk and priest. He wrote strictly about depression and suicide.
My favorite poem from him is Death:
Death - Written in 1944
Where are the merchants and the money-lenders
Whose love sang in the wires between the seaports and the
inland granaries?
Is the old trader any safer than the sailor sent to drown
Crossing the world's end in a wooden schooner?
Where are the generals who sacked the sunny cities
And burned the cattle and the grain?
Or is the politician any safer in his offices
Than a soldier shot in the eye?
Take time to tremble lest you come without reflection
To feel the furious mercies of my friendship,
(Says death) because I come as quick as intuition.
Cliffs of your hangovers were never half so dizzy as my
infinite abyss:
Flesh cannot wrestle with the waters that ire in the earth,
Nor spirit rest in icy clay!
More than the momentary night of faith, to the lost dead,
Shall be their never-ending midnight:
Yet all my power is conquered by a child's "Hail Mary"
And all my night forever lightened by one waxen candle!

A Poison Tree
I was angry with my friend:
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
And I watered it in fears,
Night and morning with my tears;
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And it grew both day and night,
Till it bore an apple bright.
And my foe beheld it shine.
And he knew that it was mine,
And into my garden stole
When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning glad I see
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

Poem- A hymn to the evening
SOON as the sun forsook the eastern main
The pealing thunder shook the heav'nly plain;
Majestic grandeur! From the zephyr's wing,
Exhales the incense of the blooming spring.
Soft purl the streams, the birds renew their notes,
And through the air their mingled music floats.
Through all the heav'ns what beauteous dies are
spread!
But the west glories in the deepest red:
So may our breasts with ev'ry virtue glow,
The living temples of our God below!
Fill'd with the praise of him who gives the light,
And draws the sable curtains of the night,
Let placid slumbers sooth each weary mind,
At morn to wake more heav'nly, more refin'd;
So shall the labours of the day begin
More pure, more guarded from the snares of sin.
Night's leaden sceptre seals my drowsy eyes,

This poem is written in a form much like the bible. I believe the author is going through struggles at this time, and feels as if he needs to let it all out, and call for guidance. Charles Dickens writes many poems that are insightful. This poem also uses some repetition and has a few alliterations with the “th” sound in a couple lines.

In a lonely place is about the author being at the top. i think it is meant he is very wealthy, or the owner of something big. The poem says he is lonely and and thinks he isnt right or something. he finds and old man who he says he admires but then after they talk the old man tells the poet that he admires him.
The man who the poem is about then realizes he is good or not lonely. just because he is on top with money or fame doesnt mean he is alone. The poem was sorta difficult to understand but this is my tpcastt and what i think of it.

The Peace of Wild Things
When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds. I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water. And I feel above me the day-blind stars waiting with their light. For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.
T- nature, peace, quiet
P- It talks about nature and being free
C- about being free and being outside in nature
A- Happy, Peaceful
S- .....it doesn’t shift
T- nature, peaceful, quiet, freedom
T- Freedom, Happiness, Wild
The TPCASTT i made was mostly right. Its about nature, life and serenity. It’s also about Freedom, Happiness, Peacefulness, and the Wilderness. The title makes me think of nature and peacefulness.
It has some poetic devices too. It has ‘Rest in his beauty’, which is probably talking about god’s creations and how beautiful nature is. There is also ‘...who do not tax teir lives with forethought of grief’, which could mean that they don’t waste their lives thinking about what could have happened and regretting all of your past decisions. It has metaphors, idioms, and it has a rhyme scheme.
Wendell was born in Newcastle, Kentucky. He graduated at the University of Kentucky. He has taught and written more than 30 books of poetry and essays as well as novels.

At morn- at noon- at twilight dim-
Maria! thou hast heard my hymn!
In joy and woe- in good and ill-
Mother of God, be with me still!
When the hours flew brightly by,
And not a cloud obscured the sky,
My soul, lest it should truant be,
Thy grace did guide to thine and thee;
Now, when storms of Fate o'ercast
Darkly my Present and my Past,
Let my Future radiant shine
With sweet hopes of thee and thine!
TPCASTT
Title- Hymn by Edgar Allen Poe
Paraphrase- He is in love with Maria, she is like a song to him gives him joy. He thinks with her his life will be radiant.
Connotation- This “maria” girl doesn’t exist. He makes her out to be incredibly gorgeous.
Attitude- He is in love with her even though he is not with her.
Shift- Un-known
Theme- In deep love with her
Title- Hymn by Edgar Allen Poe
The rhyme scheme- AA BB CC DD EE FF
Edgar Allen Poe wrote the poem Hymn. Hymn is about his love Maria. To him she is like a song she is so beautiful, and she gives him joy. He believes that with her in his life that his future will be bright and radiant. Although I think the deeper meaning is that “Maria” doesn’t exist.
Because she is so beautiful when she walks up the clouds leave the sky. Even though she doesn’t exist his attitude is he is in love with her. The shift of this poem is not easily seen.
The Theme of this poem is love. Also perfection. He thinks she is perfect for him and for everyone. The rhyme scheme is very simple. AA BB CC DD EE FF. All in all Edgar Allen Poe’s Hymn is a great poem I suggest it to everyone.

Robert Frost's Fire and Ice.
http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fire-and-ice/
Robert Frost was born in San Francisco on March 26, 1874. He moved to New England at the age of eleven and became interested in reading and writing poetry during his high school years in Lawrence, Massachusetts. He died in Boston on January 29, 1963.
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
Robers Frost's poem "Fire and Ice" asks the question the whole world would like to know. How will the world end? In the Poem he explains how he could take ether side of the argument and has some back ground knowledge to back it up.
This poem uses small words with big meanings, such as hate, desire, and passion to create a deep insite into the poem. It really makes u think about what is going on. For example Fire and Ice two total
opposites, just like lust/passin and hate. One spawned from ice, the other from fire.

He was a school teacher at one time, an apprentice to a paper man, and also a journalist. He went on to aid wounded soldiers in the Civil War. He died on March 26, 1892.
ONE’S-SELF I sing—a simple, separate Person;
Yet utter the word Democratic, the word En-masse.
Of Physiology from top to toe I sing;
Not physiognomy alone, nor brain alone, is worthy for the muse—I say the
Form complete is worthier far;
The Female equally with the male I sing.
Of Life immense in passion, pulse, and power,
Cheerful—for freest action form’d, under the laws divine,
The Modern Man I sing.
He is singing about his self. One’s self I sing, a single individual person. I am singing about them all, not just the body or mind. It all together is way better. Of life full of passion, cheer- the freest action, under god, the modern man I sing. I think it talks a lot about self confidence. Like, maybe your mind is not so great, and neither is your body, but you put them together and they are way better. The attitude is kind of inspirational. It seems like he is speaking to enthuse and inspire. The poems shift is the last line, when he says,” The Modern Man I sing.” I think that the title means that One’s Self and the Modern Man are the same. The theme of this poem would be life. Its too short to worry about your physiognomy or brain alone being good, because they are paired and work great.
Sylvia Plath
Sylvia Plath was born on October 27, 1932 in Boston, Massachusetts. The year she turned eight her father died. This event was a great subject in her writing. Starting at age 11 Sylvia began keeping a journal full of poems. Shortly after graduating high school she published some of her brilliant work.
Sylvia was a great student on the outside, but inside she was falling apart. As she tried handling college and writing, she went through serious depression. In 1953 she attempted suicide. Even through her depression she stayed ambitious and graduated from college in 1955.
The next year she met and married Ted Hughes. After two children he left her for Assia Gutmann Wevill in 1962. On February 11, 1963 Sylvia made breakfast for her sleeping children, set it in their room, and went downstairs to write her downstairs neighbor a note. Then, she committed suicide. Using her oven, she gassed herself.
After her death, Ted and Assia published a lot of her writing. She was the first poet to receive the Pulitzer Prize after she had died.

Mad Girl's Love Song by Sylvia Plath
"I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
God topples from the sky, hell's fires fade:
Exit seraphim and Satan's men:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I fancied you'd return the way you said,
But I grow old and I forget your name.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
I should have loved a thunderbird instead;
At least when spring comes they roar back again.
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)"
Analyzing:
With reading the title of “Mad Girl’s Love Song” by Sylvia Plath, you think that the girl is so in love that it seems insane. As you read, you realize that she really is so in love she’s starting to believe that she made him up. He has left and said he was but isn’t coming back so she’s saying, “Well, maybe he wasn’t real to begin with. That’s why he’s not coming.”
She starts thinking that maybe she should have loved something else, such as a thunderbird, since they always come back. She should love something she can depend on more. Her attitude is really sad and is missing him. The theme of this poem is love, but love that won’t work out.
Robert Frost
Born March 26, 1874
Died January 29,1963 (age 88)
Robert Lee Frost (March 26, 1874 – January 29, 1963) was an American poet. He is
highly regarded for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American
colloquial speech. His work frequently employed settings from rural life in New England
in the early twentieth century, using them to examine complex social and philosophical
themes. A popular and often-quoted poet, Frost was honored frequently during his
lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry.His father William Prescott Frost, his
mother Isabelle Moodie.He published his first poem in his high schoolʼs magazine.
Fire and ice
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what Iʼve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great,
And would suffice.
"robert frost." n. pag. Web. 21 Apr 2011. .
TPCAST
Fire and ice is the title of this poem.He is stating that if the world ends in fire or ice that
either way its going to get the job done. I think he was thinking that the world is full of
hate and coldness towards each other and that thats what is going to destroy the world.I
think the attitude of this poem is a sad one, that he believes the world will end very
soon.The shift in this poem is when he goes from saying he favors fire to saying ice
would be ok too.The title is still that of fire and ice is going to end the world.The theme is
that people should be nicer and not hate others.

And You Love Me
By: Stephen Crane
And you love me
I love you.
You are, then, cold coward.
Aye; but, beloved,
When I strive to come to you,
Man's opinions, a thousand thickets,
My interwoven existence,
My life,
Caught in the stubble of the world
Like a tender veil --
This stays me.
No strange move can I make
Without noise of tearing
I dare not.
If love loves,
There is no world
Nor word.
All is lost
Save thought of love
And place to dream.
You love me?
I love you.
You are, then, cold coward.
Aye; but, beloved --

I, Too, Sing America by Langston Hughes
I, too, sing America.
I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.
Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.
Besides,
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed--
I, too, am America.
T- about America
P-He is African American and is not treated the same as whites and hopes one day whites will treat him with respect.
C- A incorrigible part of something, he hopes everyone will read this and change their views on him.
A-very strong, proud to be what he is.
S- End
T-He is american and wants to be treated like one
T-sad, depressing, wanting to be someone.
The poem I,Sing,to america is about America. The poem is about an African American who is doesn’t get treated the same as whites and hope one day the whites will treat him the same as other people. A incorrigible part of something, he hopes everyone will somehow change because of this poem or at least his veiws.
The African American actually lives in america and wants to treated like one and not an outsider. I would recommend this poem to anyone who thinks they are not treated the same. Its sad, kinda depressing when you think about it but all around there is a great message hidden in the poem.

“O Captain, My Captain”
by Walt Whitman
O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up -- for you the flag is flung -- for you the bugle trills,
For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths -- for you the shores a-crowding,
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head!
It is some dream that on the deck,
You've fallen cold and dead.
My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will,
The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;
Exult O shores, and ring O bells!
But I with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Analysis)
T- O Captain, My Captain. Probably about a ship, and that Captain of it
P- They just made it home from a hard journey. Everyone is happy, except one person, cuz his Captain/Father is dying. C- The poem is actually about the death of Abraham Lincoln, and its comparing him to a captain
A- The author is glad he is home, but sad for the loss that had to occur to get there
S- He seemed happy in the beginning, arriving home. But his mood changed, when it shifted towards his dying Captain/Father
T- O Captain, My Captain. Lincoln was like the captain of America
T- He is woeful of the loss of his leader. His president. His CAPTAIN!
“O Captain, My Captain” is a very discriptive, emotional metaphor for the assination of Abraham Lincoln. It takes many elements, such as the war, post-war, and the assination by comparing them to things such as a terrible storm, rejoicing of coming back home, and the unfortunate death of the “Captain”. It gives a more vivid picture of a tragic event, in the form of a very interesting story. Walt Whitman
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Walter "Walt" Whitman (May 31, 1819 – March 26, 1892) was an American poet, essayist and journalist. A humanist, he was a part of the transition between transcendentalism and realism, incorporating both views in his works, and he is among the most influential poets in the American canon, often called the father of free verse. His work was very controversial in its time, particularly his poetry collection “Leaves of Grass,” which was described as obscene for its overt sexuality.

Both good and kind, to have
Courage and honor and joy.
We wish all these things for
Our Blueberry Girls,
And we wish just as much for each Boy.
I've purchased this book
For my Blueberry Girls,
Now grown into Ladies of note.
Glorious women,
Well set on their paths,
They fill both my dreams and my hopes.
Oh Ladies of Doggerel, Ladies of Rhyme,
Of Metaphor, Image and Trope,
Here is a song for a Blueberry Girl,
But I'm Nearing the End Of My Rope.
Ladies, you whisper, you sing, and you chant,
You haunt me awake or a-dream.
Ladies, dear ladies you're driving me mad:
Get out of my head or I'll SCREAM!

Robert Browning. Poets.org.
http://www.poets.org/poet.php/prmPID/182
Robert Browning was born on May 7, 1812, in Camberwell, England. His mother was an accomplished pianist and a devout evangelical Christian. His father, who worked as a bank clerk, was also an artist, scholar, antiquarian, and collector of books and pictures.
"Meeting At Night"
The gray sea and the long black land;
And the yellow half-moon large and low;
And the startled little waves that leap
In fiery ringlets from their sleep,
As I gain the cove with pushing prow,
And quench its speed i' the slushy sand.
Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach;
Three fields to cross till a farm appears;
A tap at the pane, the quick sharp scratch
And blue spurt of a lighted match,
And a voice less loud, through its joys and fears, Than the two hearts beating each to each.
In Robert Browning’s “Meeting At Night Analysis” shows maybe what he thinks about a true romantic moment. And also shows some excitement and twist into the story. You don’t really know who he is talking about, maybe someone that he likes or maybe its from his past. One thing you do know that it’s better a secret and makes it a mystery. Robert also tells a bunch of different scenery’s and makes your mind wonder what exactly is happening. But I think he wants to show his ultimate romantic love scene.
Poem: A Mermaid Questions God
Poet: Kelli Russell Agodon
Kelli Russell Agodon was born in Seattle, Washington, in 1969. She received a bachelor's degree from the University of Washington and an M.F.A. from the Rainier Writers Workshop at Pacific Lutheran University. She is the author of Small Knots, finalist for the 2004 Cherry Grove Poetry Prize and Geography, winner of the Floating Bridge Press Chapbook Award.
A Mermaid Questions God
As a girl, she hated the grain of anything
on her fins. Now she is part fire ant, part centipede.
Where dunes stretch into pathways, arteries appear.
Her blood pressure is temperature plus wind speed.
Where religion is a thousand miles of coastline,
she is familiar with moon size, with tide changes.
She wears the cream of waves like a vestment,
knows undertow is imaginary, not something to pray to.
Now her questions involve fairytales, begin
in a garden and lead to hands painted on a chapel's ceiling.
She wants to hold the ribbon grass, the shadow of angels
across the shore. She steals a Bible from the Seashore Inn;
she will trust it only if it floats.
T- A mermaid questions God
P- A girl is a mermaid and she is curious about why she has to be a mermaid because they only exist in fairytales
C- She doesn’t understand why it has to be this way
A- Slight anger, a little curiosity
S- The poem kind of changes at the end because she gets a bible and i think she is going to read to see if there is an answer
T- She doesn’t understand her position in life
T- Curiosity

First of all I want to say terrific blog! I had a quick question that I'd like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing. I have had a difficult time clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out. I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually wasted just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints? Thanks!
