To ask ourselves what kind of time we live in is to consider the sources of our sorrow and unease, to confront the brokenness, but also to discover the cracks through which the light gets in. What times are these, in which A conversation about trees is almost a crime For in doing so we maintain our silence about so much wrongdoing! Complement with Rich on how relationships refine our truths , why an education is something you claim rather than something you get , how silence fertilizes the imagination , and her beautiful tribute to Marie Curie.

In more human terms, this means that whenever you buy a book on Amazon from any link on here, I receive a small percentage of its price, which goes straight back into my own colossal biblioexpenses. As there are words like revolutionary and sell, so I think it may also related to war,. These make impact to the nature and human. Well, she repeats a couple or more words twice like I explained before. For me, these intensified the truth that her real meaning was under the surface of the text.
Moreover, the euphonic rhythm make such a harmonious effect to the feeling of the audience. Rich uses visual imagery most of the whole poem as he tries to depict what he sees and feels about the place. We can see in words such as revolutionary road, shadows, meeting house, trees, the grass, and so on. Shadows represents the change for bad things, getting lost of immorality.
Revolutionary road stands for the American Revolution and how we were changing for the better condition. Woods are symbol of feeling lost, and trees represent ignorance and innocence. Why is so? Because at the end of the poem Rich uses trees to reveal an irony that we only care to trees instead of the real issues. Besides using visual imagery, she uses tactile imagery shown in picking mushrooms at the edge of dread.
I think it is about the remaining thing or condition she knows about the place. Some figurative languages are used in this poem. Metaphor is used in line 11 and He compares the untold place to a dark wood meaning that this place may be bad. Well, there is certainly concern for the environment in her language, but I think the stronger message of preserving human life and treating people equally is more prominent. Moreover, there is a particular phrase that makes me think it is more than that.
She uses the phrase revolutionary road early in the poem, setting the stage for the encounter she wants to have with her audience. During the time of the revolutionary road, there was a lot of slavery, in fact the war had quite a bit to do with the freeing of slaves.
Poetic Form; this poem has 4 stanzas with 4 lines each except stanza 2. Therefore, the poem is arranged in quatrain.
