“Life”• This is such a bleak outlook for life in comparison to Romantic poetry about life. I like how it is two three-lined stanzas, which gives the message that life is brief.

“The Young Warrior”• structured with what a son wishes for his mother to do and not do as he goes to fight for a cause. This with be beautiful framed for a little boy’s room.

“We to America”—So far this poem is my favorite. It is brief, and I love the duality in it.
