blake burns Graham Luber

1. It seems in his two poems there is dialect that is from Scotland, where Blake Burns is from. He writes these poems to show extent of Scottish influence.

2. Both of the poems talk about being alive and living with another, an that it is important to enjoy life while you can. It goes against the age of reason and the logic to justify everything done.

3. It's a hill or stands for difficult times ahead.

4. He grew up in a very visionary household, in which he shows this in his poetry.

5. It seems they both are in the same structure, one shows human experience, and the other shows the innocence in human life. It seems Blake believes these two are the halves of the human soul.

6. He basically tells that rural verse urban surroundings is that he associates the rural with being open and free of the burdens of city life. Romanticism is about being open minded and being free and like one with earth.
