A Dream Comments

FOUR: Blake taught his wife to read and write because, before this, she was an illiterate person

THREE: the main theme is separation and loneliness, but it also touches on the theme of hope and reunion

TWO: The poem is a compassionate and thoughtful portrayal of the natural world through the personified story of an ant. The ant is lost and trying to find her way back to her children and their father.

ONE: the relationship between the individual and the community isolated from the community and feels that he does not belong. The dreamer is also frustrated with the community and feels that it is not meeting his needs.

Troubled, wildered and forlorn... greatly expressed!

A mind blowing dream woven in an equally fantastic melody, rich in rhyme and rhythm.

Interesting poem...........Nice

Blake's ability to blend rhyme into the simple narrative is what gives his work so much power & beauty. It lodges inside the heart, making the human associations so compelling & profound.

great job...................................................... that was really good

first of blakes poems i have read and im not dissapointed.

Old Language Amazing to read...

It's a really beautiful poem, especially the way he wrote 'O'er my angel-guarded bed', and I found out that an emmet is actually an ant, so she was lost in such a big world, and probably felt quite hopeless.

A Beautiful Poem indeed.
