Eng 125 the Boy at the Window

The boy at the window Eng 125 January 10, 2012 rhyme it is a very real thing as well as emotional. Many people use poetry to write love poems, or even some certain things standardized in the poem The male child at the window (Richard Wilbur). In this poem it shows a lot of emotions as I will discuss in the paragraphs to follow. Poems also are leery or scary. Poems really can be about whatever you neediness them to be about. He states in his audio that his five year gray-haired son was upset that his father didnt invite the snowman in and coerce him comfortable.The imaginative language of this poem was very interesting. When I first went through with(predicate) and read the poem to myself it seemed as if he was portraying the poem to be very doleful. Having a snowman melt away is a very sad thing for a child and at times they really seizet understand why they are there one sidereal day and thence gone the next. When I perceiveed to the poem in the audio rendering it ki nd of was meant as humor in parts of it. It seemed to really rise to life when you could hear people laughing in the back scope and to hear how he read it.Figurative language is used in this poem as well a few times. When he states the pale-faced picture with bitumen eyes instead he could have said something simple like the snowman with the coal eyes. I believe this language is used in many an(prenominal) poems to make the poems unique. I call up that a poem that throws a petite twist in it is something that is very interesting. Irony is also characterized in this poem.

I had to read the poem several times and listen to before I really understood the different divisions that were in it. At least it took some time to really figure the elements tha t fit swell to this poem. There really could be more but I think that the ones that I chose fit really well. The elements in this poem did not repair my opinion on the content of the poem.My opinion of the poem wouldnt flip no matter the element. I found it somewhat a scrap to pin point three particular elements when reading the poem because I think that there could be many. When I found one element that fit it right then I really had to think about how it worked with it and so on. I really enjoyed reading the poems and really found The boy at the window (Richard Wilbur) to be one that I could relate to. When I was a kid I would build snowman all the time and then wonder why they would go away.Then you got the song Frosty the snowman which real if you listen to the lyrics they are actually pretty sad when you get sentiment about it. I am now put in the equal situation when building a snowman with my son and have to explain what goes on when building a snowman.
