The Horses - TED HUGHES?Could someone help ... answer the questions below for this English poetry of TED HUghes....

The Horses - Ted Hughes

I climbed through woods in the hour-before-dawn dark.

Evil air, a frost-making stillness,

Not a leaf, not a bird -

A world cast in frost. I came out above the wood

Where my breath left tortuous statues in the iron light.

But the valleys were draining the darkness

Till the moorline - blackening dregs of the brightening grey -

Halved the sky ahead. And I saw the horses:

Huge in the dense grey - ten together -

Megalith-still. They breathed, making no move,

with draped manes and tilted hind-hooves,

Making no sound.

I passed: not one snorted or jerked its head.

Grey silent fragments

Of a grey silent world.

I listened in emptiness on the moor-ridge.

The curlew's tear turned its edge on the silence.

Slowly detail leafed from the darkness. Then the sun

Orange, red, red erupted

Silently, and splitting to its core tore and flung cloud,

Shook the gulf open, showed blue,

And the big planets hanging -

I turned

Stumbling in the fever of a dream, down towards

The dark woods, from the kindling tops,

And came to the horses.

There, still they stood,

But now steaming and glistening under the flow of light,

Their draped stone manes, their tilted hind-hooves

Stirring under a thaw while all around them

The frost showed its fires. But still they made no sound.

Not one snorted or stamped,

Their hung heads patient as the horizons,

High over valleys in the red levelling rays -

In din of crowded streets, going among the years, the faces,

May I still meet my memory in so lonely a place

Between the streams and the red clouds, hearing the curlews,

Hearing the horizons endure.

Please talk about " What the horses symbolize" and "How does the poet vividly convey this "

One example of a short declamation piece in Tagalog is "Ang Pag-ibig ay Parang Bulaklak". It talks about how love is like a flower that must be nurtured and cared for in order to bloom beautifully, but can easily wither if not given the right attention.
