Fear No More Comments

Rating: 3.8

Fear no more the heat o' the sun;
Nor the furious winter's rages,
Thou thy worldly task hast done,
Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages;

I like that Shakespeare was going for rhyming couplets as a fous of the poem, but his flow and story telling remains intact. I found a forced rhyme and smiled a little. Great does not rhyme eat. They contain common letters but sound different. But who cares. A lovely peace by a virtuoso

As chimney sweepers come to dust......To live in fear is worst than death itself especially if one has lived the life to the fullest. great poem.

No negative feelings and harmful magic, and nothing can cause harm any more. By seeing a grave we can know it well. We should not fear at all because everything comes to an end and turns into dust in this material world. This poem is excellent and inspirational.

We neither should nor fear, if anyone defames us nor if we face the severe disapproval. We should not fear to the series of unfortunate events or itchy scars on skin. All joy, all lovers and everything comes into duty and we see it in this mortal world.

This world is temporary. Eating drinking, body make up, cloth, everything turn into dust as per time and we see the change. We should not fear at all. Journey of life is wonderful. We should not fear at all hearing the roar of cloud and lightening or thunder.

Sweepers come to dust, they sweep and clean the road and houses. Sun should not fear the heat. We should also not fear the heat. Sun should not fear winter's rage. We should not fear coldness of winter. Golden land dwells eternally.

BACK OFF! You spelled terrible wrong and the meaning of the poem is how death provides an escape from life and that there is nothing to be afraid of anymore when you're dead

Fear no more the lightning-flash, Nor the all-dread thunder-stone; Fear not slander, censure rash; Thou hast finished joy and moan; The great Schakespeare of all times. tony

I Iike the idea that chimney sweepers was the name for dandelion seed-heads, the golden heads turns to dusty seeds, but I do not know if this interpretation can be sustained.

Every time I read and remember this poem exists, it strikes me with more and more exquisite meaning. A poem that frees one's mood from an acknowledgement of one's current circumstance.
