Toni Morrison and Emily Dickinson Poetic Description :: Poetry Poem

Toni Morrison and Emily Dickinson use poetic description to engage the indorser into the moment. Poetry is a language with different elements. Some say that frost has to have literary elements such as metaphors and similes. Others stress rhythm and rhyme as the most important part of poetry. Personally, poetry can be about anything and have no clear definition to it. Emily Dickinsons poetry Success is Counted Sweetest has rhythm and rhyme, metaphors and similes. In Morrisons novel Sula, the scene w here(predicate) Hannah dies withal has poetic elements.In the poem Success is Counted Sweetest the speaker states that those who neer succeed (2) place the highest value on victory they count it sweetest. In order to understand the richness of this, the speaker states one must purport sorest need. (4). Dickinson states that the members of the victorious army The purple host/Who took the flag today (5-6) ar not able to label victory as well as the defeated or dying man who hears from a distance the medicinal drug of the victors. People tend to desire things more intensely when they do not have them. This poem goes to show that Dickinson is pretty aw are of the complicated truths of valet de chambre desire. Dickinson switches roles and speaks on behalf of the dying man, who hears the victorious celebrating. To the dying man, defeat meant that he had garbled everything. This poem causes the reader to think about what success and failure are truly about. To the dying man on the field of battle, barely vivification would have been a priceless success. Instead, the men celebrating victory are those who win the war. Dickinson uses each verse to relate a different perspective of success and need. In the first, she introduces how those who long for something they never have achieve a great thrill of achievement than somebody who had the same thing the deprived sought-after(a) for all along. In the second verse, Dickinson discusses the victorious soldiers who acqu ired something apparently neither here nor there to their existence. This thought is associated in the final verse when the tragedy and yearning of the wounded is revealed. In Morrisons Sula the death of Hannah is very poetic. To deject with, Hannah takes a nap and dreams of a red bridal gown. She tells Eva about it, merely Eva is too distracted by Sulas adolescent sort to think much about it.
