#PoetryXHS#CrossingSwamp The first person POV makes the poem more relatable as we all go through struggles in our lives and can experience anotherโs struggle first hand.
#PoetryXHS#CrossingSwamp It seems like the poem has an overall positive message in the end as the branch is the hope or light at the end of the tunnel in any situation.
#PoetryXHS#AStory I feel like we can all relate to the pressures of wanting to please others we care about and fulfill their needs much like how the speaker is saddened by the fact that he can't think of a story to tell his son.
#PoetryXHS#AStory The first two lines of the poem struck a chord with me as writers block is something very frustrating that I think we all experience at times.
#PoetryXHS#HenryVIII It seems to me like Henry VIII was a bit of a baby to create such a dispute and burn so many bridges over something that didn't need to be such a big deal.
#PoetryXHS#HenryVIII It seems silly to me that a man of such great stature could be stripped of all his power over a small disagreement. The cardinal's power was personified through his relationship with the king.
#mocstone The author of the poem speaks about his temporary existence. He is a stone that will give way to the next stone, in order to create something bigger than himself, a wall.
