The Express by the Auden Generation poet, Stephen Spender is a modern Romantic Poem glorifying the Express train in motion, which can be regarded as a symbol of industrial revolution. The poem is an answer to the degenerating world of the 20th century, with hardly anything to speak or think of Romantically. With the steaming Express train placed beyond "the bird's song" & "boughs breaking with honey buds", the poet drives home the message that the new age Romanticism will not wither away. A true Romantic is likely to find new "wild happiness" from amidst the machines, gas works and pistons. The poem is literally " a living poem in motion" with its alliteration, blank verse and concrete images covering power and glory, death, metaphysical transcend. It's a personal meditative poem starting from the plain of reality and ascending to the realms of metaphysical.
here the poet is having a comparison between the growing, flourishing industry in today's world and the movement of a train.the poet had successfully compared the movement of a train as a factory or industry.
The name Stephen comes from the greek meaning lord and, king
