Poem - Him (Kind of Poetry)

Him
by: Rizka Faidah Utami

Tall and a little bit skinny
Friendly and kind
His voice is so melodious
And soothing
Like a bird chirping in the morning
His eyes are so stunning
Like a rainbow arising after the rain
His gaze is so deep
As deep as the ocean
His smile is so sweet
As sweet as cotton candy

He’s almost full of perfection
And I truly admire him

Poem Analysis - A Red, Red Rose

A Red, Red Rose

By: Robert Burns

O my Luve's like a red, red rose
That’s newly sprung in June;
O my Luve is like the melody
That’s sweetly played in tune!

So fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a’ the seas gang dry.

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun;

Analysis:

• This poem is made by Robert Burns, a famoys Scotthish poet. This poem is about his love to a woman. He has deep feelings for her so he write a poem to describe his love feeling to her.
• Robert Burns use "luve" word, I think, because he is a typical shy man and he is not brave enough to call her "love" and use "love" word. And he doesn't want to seem frontal to call her "love" so he choose "luve" word instead of "love" word.
• On this poem, Robert Burns also use a red rose to symbolize his love to a woman that he love. He use red rose, not other flowers or color of flowers because I think, first, rose is a beautiful flower. It smells good. It is identical with the world of romance. Second, red rose is type of flowers that is widely used as a symbol of romanticism, can also be said as an expression of affection. Moreover, red rose has a meaning. It is "I love you".
