Gone is the sunshine |
by Redangelwings
I always love the use of flowers in poems. Actually nature in general. The way you use your metaphors in poems are some of the best I have ever seen indeed. I love how you use winter as darkness and all the decribing words for it. Everything here seems to die and the people hide which is great for the tone of the poem you wrote here. The title works very well here. When summer dies life seems to halt and not as many things are alive. Like I said people isolate and sadness comes. The imagery here is immaculate. As I said the imagery plays out so well in my head and its sad how true this is here. The first two lines are my favorite because it is so simple yet it says so many things. They also have a deeper meaning behind them. The sun is light and light is happiness and when the joy goes away people do to. The tone is sad with so much deeper meaning! 5/5 |
Starting the poem with sunshine makes it a brilliant start as related to the title (the summer). |
