>Click Here For It<

A Girl by Ezra Pound
The tree has entered my hands,
The sap has ascended my arms,
The tree has grown in my breast-
Downward,
The branches grow out of me, like arms.

Tree you are,
Moss you are,
You are violets with wind above them.
A child - so high - you are,
And all this is folly to the world.

Blog Prompt:

Many Personifications are used in this poem.

The Tree has entered my hand.
A Tree could have never enter a human being's hand, instead this line is referring, in my opinion, a baby.
Some metaphors are used in this poem.
Here are some examples:
Tree You Are.
The writer referred are her child as tree and thought of her as a tree and gave her abilities of a tree - growing, perseverance.

The poem was simple yet meaningful. It was very symbollic of her baby and described her as a tree - This could speak of her love for her baby. Although this poems does not use a tactic which I know as a rhymming (laymen's term), it still sounded nice. I hope that this poem could help me learn more about poems.
