Roses can vary in colour and type, just like any other flower. All roses may symbolize different sentiments and have different meanings. They are presented on occasions of all kinds. Shirley Jackson's short story "The Possibility of Evil," uses Miss Strangeworth's roses to symbolize her hidden back story to her spiteful, colourful notes. Is she really evil or does she just simply want a perfect, pleasant life?
A rose to her is cliché and something transient, for roses withers away in a couple of days. Their leaves are “fragile” in line 6 barely holding on like the relationship, it can be broken quite quickly. It dangles precariously, it’s something fleeting which is what the author does not want. She emphasizes and stresses this point through the repetition of the line “one perfect rose,” at the close of each
The poet uses rhyming couplets, but they do not all rhyme in the traditional way that readers may be used to. When a reader first skims the poem, they may think it rhymes perfectly, but in fact the author is using rhymes such as “times” and “names”, or “alight” and “root”. At first glance, these may seem to rhyme perfectly, but when the reader looks closer, they do not rhyme perfectly. It is the same with a painting of a lily pond. When one first glances at the painting, they see a peaceful, still pond, with a delicate flower standing tall.
Regardless of this, the poem is famous for its unique rhythm and meter of poem. The poem flows very smoothly but does not have a specific poetic foot. Consonances were used to help the rhyme scheme sound more pleasing to readers. The poets diction was exclusive and out of the ordinary.
Attending The Lady and the Rose: The Great American Psychedelic Metaphor, by Dr. Joseph A Smith, was interesting to say the least. The main point about this lecture was that, the band, Grateful Dead, was apart of the psychedelic rock band movement in the 1960s. Psychedelic rock is a style of rock music that is inspired or influenced by psychedelic culture and attempts to replicate and enhance the mind-altering experience of psychedelic drugs. Musicians like The Beatles pioneered this rock movement. Even though the Grateful Dead sang in that genre, they still sang many different genres like country western and folk, and they influenced bands of all these different genres.
Rose went to ask a question but Doc held his hand up stopping her 'Please let me finish, then I will answer your queries best I can'. ' Now', he continued, 'the imbalance of the emotions causes the body to get out of balance. This affects the digestive progress which again in turn will cause toxin waste.

Dorothy Parker used the phrase "My Love" (Parker Line 9,17) to begin the first line of each stanza and then began talking about the man. "My own dear love" (Parker Line 1,7,15,23) is used at the beginning of each last phrase in the stanza as well.

Written by Julia Boissoneau Hans, has said that Dorothy Parker wrote mostly about women drinking in a club.
Topics discussed in both books Sexuality in the novels The theme of sexuality is incredibly prevalent in both novels. There are multiple definitions of sexuality as stated in Dictionary.com ranging from the “possession of the structural and functional traits of sex” and “recognition of or emphasis upon sexual matters” to “involvement in sexual activity” (Sexuality, 2015). Though for Rose in This One Summer, the topic of sexuality is not as blatantly out there as it is for Gabi. With Rose, the idea of sexuality and sexual activity grows in the background of everything happening at her vacation, whereas with Gabi, the idea of sexuality and sexual activity is incredibly prevalent and is a main theme in the novel.

The Compass Rose, a collection of short stories by Ursula K. Le Guin, was published in 1982, at the height of the postmodernist movement. Like the modernists, postmodernists believed in unadulterated self-expression. They, too, were unbound by classic literary conventions; however, a majority of modernists were driven by political rebellion and their art was a direct reflection of that. Postmodernists, on the other hand, were less concerned about political activism and more skeptical of any concrete system. They were neither completely for nor against anything in particular, but chose to look at things with an open mind and from many different points of view.
In the Victorian Age, poetry mostly focused on the domestic lifestyle of the middle class individuals. Previously, Romanticism focused on the experience of seeing the sublime in nature which was mostly a large scene being depicted for the reader. In Hilda Doolittle’s poem, “Sea Rose,” she instead focuses solely on a single rose. This was one of the Imagist ideals, to have “clear and immediate images” (2057) that give “direct treatment to the ‘thing’” (2057). The entire sixteen-line poem focuses on a rose that the speaker is viewing.

People love differently, but we all are striving for the same thing; a happy, healthy bond between one another. John Lee says that there are 6 different love styles, and in this paper I will explain my results on the “Love Style” inventory and the “Are You a Good Listener” survey.
