Comparative

Though we are all equipped with the ability of loving someone, but the flow of crawl in we let out is different from one to another. Besides, we can alike clearly observe a world of different ways of bonk between couples, husbands and wives, or even mothers and children. For example, in the poem, Leaving the Motel, are two secret lovers sharing their love after an afternoon sexual encounter, while in after(prenominal) reservation Love We Hear Footsteps, the presence of the couples child perfect the family love. Thus, different poet will interpret the same topic distinctly.Reading through these two poems, the very first dissimilarity that I observe is the tone used in the poem. In Leaving the Motel, everything seems to go so fast, and the speaker keeps looking from here to there carefully and sprightly. Besides, the bountiful uses of enjambment indicates that the actions shouldnt include any pauses and must be done all the way until everything is in the right position, such as the following lines quoted below, Check is the aid bed Unreeled, as agreed? Landlords have to think ahead In case of need, (lines 5-8)Beside the enjambments used in lines, go out out that author ingeniously utilised the enjambment between paragraphs such as paragraph 5 to paragraph 6 Weve paid. Still, should such things get lonely, An aspirin to preserve Our lilacs, the wayside flowers (lines 19-22) Leave in their vase And from above, its dawn on me that though they eager to express the true feelings in their minds, they failed to do so. As the tone shift, the word still in line 19 and the truth that A few more hours / Thats all (lines 24-25) reveals nothing could actually last.This kind of erotic love contained not only worrying but also guilt, because the love cant be preserved as long as possible and cant be confirmed under the sun. This tone is much different with the other poem, After Making Love We heard Footsteps. At the beginning of the first stanza, For I can snore like a bullhorn or play cheesy music or sit up talking with any reasonably sober Irishman (lines 1-3) these lines portray a lighthearted tone. Later author put dash off the sweet sex of the couple, describing the sounds of the progress in lines 6 and 7, but let there e that heavy breathing / or a stifled come-cry anyplace in the house.In contrast with the brisk and short tone in Leaving the Motel, it is rather meticulous and enthusiastic. Likewise, the tones secretly shift as the third mortal shows up, the emergence of a little boy. At first, consider the image of boys insecurity in such a big house would be a seriously interruption in a negative light, as the boy leaves a question, Are you loving and snuggling? May join? (line 16) But I am utterly wrong as the tone showing me the love the parents hold for their child.In second stanza, which I considered the most touching and convincing one, when speaker said, this one whom vestments of memory propels to the ground of his making (li ne 22) and this blessing love gives again into our arms. (line 24), they pick up the meaning of sex and it is through the progress that their child came to the family. Hence, the word love in line 24 carries two meanings. One is sex of love and the other is the child of love. Except the tone and internal form, we may also find details about the poems.
