.... an athlete beginning a season, or a student beginning a course of study. The poet is telling the novice to build on what she has learned in the past, to continue to set her goals high and to open herself up to help from a higher being, which may be herself, her father, a mentor, or God, to help her achieve her goals. Booth is saying in this poem that the first lesson one needs to learn in life is that we must prepare ourselves for the future. In doing so, we must rely on a “higher being” for support, because we are not capable of surviving on our own. A b .....

.... hands forever, cancle all our vows" sums up very concisely the idea of the break being forever, with no possibility of a reconciliation, whilst also adding to the ease of understanding and therefore also to the meaning of the poem. Another constraint of the sonnet is the length of the lines themselves. In a sonnet, the rythem is always iambic pentameter, which means that there must always be ten syllables per line, with each second syllable being stressed. Where the author breaks this pattern, it must obviously be for a good reason, when the author wan .....

.... me and my love, Though both are simple I promise they are true. Even as I write this, I think of how to describe to you. Something I hardly understand, But I must tell you how I feel. So I close my eyes, And let my heart guide my hand. Perhaps the tears that falls from my eyes, Will show you my love and how much it means to me. To me our love is everything. I believe love will find it's way and show us the answers To the questions being revealed, I promise .....

.... a drink of richer people, who would (in most cases) have more money then her. Also because wine is curious, in flavor as well as in its bubbly ways, as money is to those that do not have it. In the second stanza it seems she speaks of what she was thinking as she touched the “Curious Wine” “’Twas this on Tables I had seen” tells of how she had seen wealth often, so her hunger was not for the unknown but the inexperienced. “Windows” tells of how she knew the wealth. She saw it but never touched it, she viewed it but never got an inch closer then she was the d .....

.... again talks about the wind, as a celestial being when he describes the wind as a "Wild Spirit" and says this spirit is everywhere. He then comments on the power of the wind when he describes it as a "Destroyer and Preserver." He ends the first part in the fifth stanza with an apostrophe. The speaker speaks to the West Wind, and asks this higher force to listen to his plea. The second section of the poem deals with the wind as being a power of the wind in the heavens. He begins the second section of the poem by saying that the wind is "'mid the steep sky's com .....

.... second child. Three years later his eldest child died, which he later addressed in his poetry ("Robert Frost"). In 1912, having been unable to interest American publishers, Frost moved to a farm in Buckinghamshire, England wrote prolifically, attempting to perfect his poetic voice. During this time, he met such literary figures as Ezra Pound, an American expatriate poet and champion of innovative literary approaches, and Edward Thomas, a young English poet associated with the Georgian poetry movement then popular in Great Britain. Frost soon published hi .....

.... of death. In his Holy Sonnets, mostly written before he was ordained, there is the memorable poem beginning “Death be not proud” and he was also the author of two notable poems commemorating the death of Elizabeth Drury, the daughter of his friend and patron. . . . Generally regarded as the foremost of the metaphysical poets, Donne was always an uneven writer. His secular poems were original, energetic, and highly rhetorical, full of passionate thought and intellectual juggling. . . . His adroitness in argument and his skill at impersonating different states of .....
