The Moor Comments

Finally I wish to say, A Sonnet of 15 lines, I should say: Ralph Hogdson's own Sonnet, beautifully created.

FOUR: It also highlights the beauty of nature and the importance of finding solace in it during difficult times

THREE: The poem suggests that death is an inevitable part of life and that we should accept it rather than resist it.

TWO: The man is resigned to his fate and is waiting for death to come and take him away.

I will highlight this poem The Moor" by Ralph Hodgson ONE: It is about the inevitability of death and the futility of resisting it. The poem describes an old man who has been left behind by the world, sitting alone on a moorland and staring at the vast expanse of land.

Beautiful poem, I am mesmerised, such a beauty in melancholy. TOP Marks and to my Favourites.
