A simile in the poem "Ozymandias" by Percy Bysshe Shelley is found in the line "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings." This line compares Ozymandias to a king of kings, using the word "like" or "as" to draw a comparison between the two. Similes are a type of figurative language that help create vivid imagery and emphasize certain characteristics of the subject being described. In this case, the simile highlights Ozymandias's perceived greatness and power.

In the poem "In the Park" by Gwen Harwood, the speaker portrays the monotonous and unfulfilling life of a mother through vivid imagery and stark contrasts. The park setting serves as a metaphor for the speaker's feelings of entrapment and longing for something more.

The poem ultimately challenges traditional gender roles and highlights the complexities of motherhood.

The meaning is that all the people who died in the war are saying that all their beautiful surroundings and then reality hits them and they get to the serious stuff saying that carry on the war and win because we did not just die and risk our lives just to lose and if we do not win then we will never rest in peace always fight for justice and PEACE

I'm really sorry that you lost your grandpa. Here is a model poem that you really can't use as your own, but maybe you can use it as an inspiration. It was found on-line.

Tomorrow is his memorial church mass and he's always been a fan of my poetry that I write, I decided to write him one last poem to read during his service. I'm nervous, but he deserves this. Let me know what you think:

God gently took your hand, and whispered, "Come with me.

Your work on Earth is over, it's time to set you free.

Don't worry about your family, for they will be okay.

They have such happy memories, that they'll remember every day."

"You've made such a difference, you've always touched a life.

You had 2 beautiful daughters,and a very loving wife.

Your grandchildren really loved you, you were a hero in their eyes.

They got the chance to kiss you once more, they sadly said their goodbyes."

"Even though it's hard to let you go, they know it was for the best.

I don't give them anything they can't handle, their grief will be put to rest."

"You had 4 great grandchildren, who loved you very much.

They will forever remember their Nanu, his kisses and his touch.

They loved to talk to you on the phone, they loved to hear you sing,

they always got excited, whenever the phone would ring."

"It may be hard to deal with the fact, that their beloved passed away.

But they will find peace in knowing, that you'll be reunited again some day."

Little Things by: Trinidad Veloro

Tiny grains of dry white sand,

Make up the long broad strand;

Tiny drops of pattering rain,

The deep wide seas sustain.

Tiny drops of pearly dew,

Coll some drooping flow'r anew;

Little flashes of tiny light,

Brighten many of darksome night.

Little hands linked together,

Form a circle of love and laughter

Little words in kindness spoken

Can mend a heart that's broken.

All nature poems have celebrated the worthiness, goodness and beauty of the nature's various creations around man. No nature poem has aroused uneasiness and discomfort in a reader or listener. Not one among the nature poems is stone- rough, coarse or emotionless. Almost all have a mellow soothing effect on human mind. These may be taken as characteristics of Nature Poetry.

The poet was W.F. Holmes.

Simon Lee, a character from William Wordsworth's poem "Simon Lee, the Old Huntsman," is an elderly man who once worked as a huntsman. The poem explains that Simon Lee no longer cares for husbandry or tillage because of his age and physical condition. In his younger years, he was vigorous and active, known for his strength and agility. However, as he aged, his body became frail and weak, making it impossible for him to continue with the demanding physical labor associated with farming and hunting.
