this is showing that they are scared maybe even terrified and are questioning everything about themselves. They are sort of confused but as the they go on in stanza 5 they are starting to find strength in that fear and using that fear for there own good in finding a way to come
Have you ever wondered, if life is important enough for you to be happy and not fear death? The poem “Sing your death song” by Tecumseh is coaxing you to live your life with no fear and regrets. The speaker of the poem, which is Chief Tecumseh, is dedicating his life for his people by fighting for their land. The image that is being portrayed is a warrior who is putting his life on the line for the well being of his people. Figures of speech that are being used are simile and metaphor because it is comparing life and death.
Here is what happens that shows this theme. Willow Chance a twelve year old girl had to overcome the sudden loss of both her parents, she had a hard time dealing, but with the help of Mai, Pattie, Dell Duke, and even Quang-Ha she was able to persevere. Mai and Quang-Ha had lived in a garage for several years because they never had enough money to live in a real home, despite that they made the best of it. Willow Chance persevered when her teachers thought she had cheated on a test she got a perfect score despite the fact that she knew she didn’t cheat. This theme is shown in real life when friends help someone cope with the death of a loved one and you persevere and go back to living your life normally.
Another example of figurative language that the author uses is personification in lines 18 and 19 “tucked away like a cabin or hogan in dense trees, come knocking.” to show in his poem that he will protect her. When she is sad she can use this poem to keep her safe. It also
The poem "Fear" by G. Mcstrawl uses many different types of figurative language. This poem talks about the feelings of a mother and misery in losing her daughter. She is fearful of her daughter leaving her. The poem uses repeated metaphors, imagery, and symbols to show the emotion and feelings of the mother. The author uses the metaphor, " I don't want them to turn her into a swallow" multiple times.
"Tears are the baseline of every powerful emotion, throughout life or death;"this was a noticeable theme in the poem, which can also apply to many other things as well. The poem represents fear, hope, sadness, assurance, and promises. This matches with the novel, "Girl in a Blue Coat" very well. My character is stuck, and has so much going on, and
The metaphor of the birds also serves to create a sense of movement and tension within the poem, as the birds engage in a battle of wills that reflects the speaker's own struggle for
In the poem Making Sarah Cry, the theme was perseverance because the poem is about a little girl named Sarah who gets picked on every single day. In the text it stated, “To him she must deserve it because she never tried to hide.” This shows perseverance because she never gave up and never went to hide away from all the bullying. Another example why the theme is perseverance is because the poem states, “Leave him alone you bullies, because he's a friend of mine.”
One of the reasons I figured out the theme was because of the author's use of figurative language. In the third stanza, I found the simile "Her good nature wore out/ like a fanbelt" (16-17). When I read this, I interpreted it as that she snapped because of all the high expectations put on her. After what everybody said to her, instead of ignoring it, she let what
Their story shows how in times of financial problems, family and love stands strong. Kenny Loggins wrote this song as a gift to his brother, Danny. There is an indirect theme which follows the entire story. This theme is love and
Halfway through the first stanza Lorde delivers constant everyday fear that people feel on an everyday basis. Using the comparison of an iron wall she delivers “my days collapse into a hollow tube / soon implodes / against now / like an iron wall” (Lorde, lines 2-4). As restriction goes on day-by-day one feels like exploding since there’s a lack of happiness to go on for. This simile gives another view on mourning especially within oneself. Going deep and personal feeling like that old part of you is gone because now you're worrying about your fears.
Cassie survives by dedicating herself to Sammy, this is illustrated by her continuing to fight through many hardships after her father is killed and she is separated from Sammy. This can also be seen when Ben promises to fight for Sissy; he dedicates himself and his survival to her and continues to fight against all odds for her. Both Cassie and Ben fight for Sammy throughout the entire book even after being told by multiple people that it is impossible. This theme to me means that your dedication, or commitment, to others ultimately affects your survival and how hard you fight. If you are dedicated to someone, like a close family member, you have more of a reason to fight than fighting for nothing.
This recording is a classic and inspiring example of the sweetness of pop, the passionate vigor of soul, and the groovy feel of R&B. There are many compositional techniques used to convey message in this song. First there is the bass guitar, which provides the melody throughout the song. It begins with a low pitch, and gradually increases until a climactic rise in the mood of the song during the chorus. This could be a representation of being at the lowest point in life, only to rise from the ashes.
The first reason, is figurative language is a key to comprehending a song. Figurative language interprets the main object to emphasize it´s meaning. For example, in Taylor Swift’s Blank Space she uses a simile by saying , “... I can read you like a magazine…”, she is trying to say that she knows what a male’s intention is. She continues interpreting the main object by using the hyperbole “...we’ll take this way too far it’ll leave you breathless or with a nasty scar…”, meaning their love can end in troublesome terms.
She uses a metaphor in her song to reveal that no matter what, she will get back up again stronger than ever. In her song, after she feels sad, she says “I will be rising from the ground” (line 12). This is saying that she is getting past her tough times in her life and is finally becoming stronger again and will enlighten people that she will never give up. Moving on, Lovato uses allusion to relate to her theme, she says “All my windows still are broken But I'm standing on my feet” (line 18 and 19). This shows how Lovato is like glass because she was dropped in her past and never recovered, and still is broken, however, she can still handle it due to her strength of believing in herself.
