Many poems are written about death. The two poets William Cullen Bryant and
Emily Dickinson were very influential trancendental writers. Bryant writing
Thanatopsis And Emily Dickinson's "Because I Could Not Stop for Death" are
basically more alike then than they are similar for the fact that there views on
Death are the same, but what happens to you after is what is disimiliar,although
Dickinsons and Bryants poems are very different as seen in specific detail. As
in both poems death is present, the way the two authors express it however is a

after death is what is very dissimilar. In the poem when she says "We passed
the school where children played ,We passed the the fields of blazing grain,"
shows her use of Idealisation of Nature.Bryants whole poem is Idealisation of
nature, by choosing but one sentence would be cutting the poem short.By both
authors using the same romantic element is just another example of how they are
similar.

Love is like a path, and although you know where it will end up, you don't know how you will get there. It might take a circle and take you back to the start. It might turn right and the left and get you so confused that you don't where you are, but you will always find yourself. Love can make you dizzy, happy, sad, angry, repulsed, disgusted, or e...
The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam presents an interesting challenge to any reader trying to sort through its heavy symbolism and not- so-obvious theme. Not only does the poem provide us with a compelling surface story, but a second look at the text can reveal a rich collection of seperate meanings hidden in the poem's objective descriptions and sprawli...
"Dear Pinocchio" I watch as you stare, can't help blink then it's gone Like lightening that strikes to be there, then be gone I can't help to think of what we used to be But then I remember what split you and me The fake laugh, the fake smile O how could I not see?
