A Winter Walk

One dark and treacherous evening, a man betrayed the love of his life after fifty bitter years of marriage. The man packed his bags and left the country in a carriage with his new young bride through what was known as the King's Forest. Stubborn as a mule, the old hag was determined to follow him to his grave. She threw a few items into a suitcase, grabbed her cane and headed into the blizzard after him. Knowing that she would follow him, the man had paid the townspeople to terrorize her as she journeyed through the forest. Scared out of her wits and thinking that Death had imprinted her name in his book, the old lady succumbed to her fate.

There is a link to the song! I suggest you guys listen to it!

"Why are you so far from me?
In my arms is where you are to be
How long will you make me wait?
I don't know how much more I can take
I missed you but I haven't met you
Oh but I want to
How I do,
Slowly counting down the days
Till I finally know your name
The way your hand feels round my waist
The way you laugh, the way your kisses taste
I missed you but I haven't met you
Oh but I want to
How I do
How I do
I've missed you but I haven't met you
Oh how I miss you but I haven't met you
Oh but I want to,
Oh how I want to
Dear whoever you might be
I'm still waiting patiently"

 I consider this song a poem because it has several different literary devices at play. First off there is a plot to the short song. The story can be interpreted in several different ways, but the most basic interpretation would be an individual waiting for there true love to come along. However,  it uses ambiguity because the individual is using tons of imagery to describe their true love that they haven't met yet.

Poem

I chose "I Do Not Love Thee" by Caroline Elizabeth Sarah Norton because the poems describes romantically loving a person but not being able to stand them. This contrast of love and hate creates a powerful emotional poem that was very interesting for me to read.

HOPELESSNESS

Hopelessness is a wildfire in the soul.
I acted like a rhinoceros when I tried to be relativist!
