4794 Beechwood Farms Drive/Wodsworth Analysis
4794 Beechwood Farms Drive
What brings the spirit to our five-roomed house?
It doesn’t matter what time of the year,
Whether there are over twenty people or only a spouse,
The feeling of love and care is apparent here.
At 4794 Beechwood Farms Drive.
A hard-working family, busy as bees,
Who always seems to spend quality time.
Eating dinner, playing scrabble, climbing trees,
Or making phone calls regardless the time.
At 4794 Beechwood Farms Drive.
There’s something special about the season of fall
The autumn chill and rainbow-colored leaves,
That even though we are the busiest of all,
The time spent together is more cherished than perceived.
At 4794 Beechwood Farms Drive.
A dry sense of humor, a sarcastic room,
Filled with sports and Jeopardy at 7:30
Late nights of staying up or studying for tests that are soon,
With someone always waking up early.
At 4794 Beechwood Farms Drive.
My life without these four people would be very sad,
My family is all that I need to get through the day
And for that I’m forever glad
That in 10 years, I will be able to get away,
To 4794 Beechwood Farms Drive.
Analysis of William Wodsworth's poetry:
William Wodsworth has very original poems, but there is definitely a common theme within each one. In the Romantic Era, poems generally emphasized the themes and style of formality and mannerism. Wodsworth breaks this regularity and writes poems about strong feelings, instinct, and pleasure. He truly believed that poems were meant to be enjoyed, and he focused on pleasing his readers. His poems deal with the subjects of childhood and the child’s lost connection with the nature surrounding him or her. Along with childhood, the historical past is analyzed in Wodsworth’s poems in a more emotional way. His poetry is not hard to read, but is written in common speech rather than extravagant wording.
