Developing an individual's emotional and psychological well-being is largely dependent on the parent-child relationship. In poems like "My Mother" by Ellen Bryant Voigt and "Those Winter Sundays" by Robert Hayden, we are given a glimpse into the nuances and emotions at the heart of parent-child interactions. Parents' actions have profound effects on the lives of their children, and both poets explore themes of love, sacrifice, and the real impact of their actions. The author's two works offer a lens through which the parent-child dynamic might be viewed: Ellen Bryant Voigt's "My Mother" and Robert Hayden's "Those Winter Sundays", both presenting the relationship through the lens of regret and appreciation. For example, Hayden's opening line presents a vivid depiction of a father's silent sacrifices: "Sundays to my …show more content…
Through meticulous care of the household and emotional support, Voigt's poem portrays maternal affection and sacrifice that directly benefits the speaker. On the other hand, Hayden's poem is melancholy and regretful, focusing on unrecognized sacrifice as the theme of the father's love. An often belated appreciation for parental sacrifice is a common theme in parent-child relationships, as illustrated by the speaker's retrospective understanding of his father's love. It is poignant to see how the concept of parental love has evolved over both poems' final stanzas. A central part of Voigt's speaker's message is the recognition of the mother's sacrifice as being crucial to their development and well-being. Hayden's speech, on the other hand, ends with a lament for his past ignorance, as encapsulated in the lines, "What did I know, what did I know / of love’s austere and lonely offices?" Hayden, lines 13-14. Often silent, always profound, this rhetorical question underscores the complexity of parental
expressed in “Those Winter Sundays”, by Robert Hayden, where a boy reflects on all his father has done for him even though he and his family never acknowledged all of the effort and labor his father put into making them happy, healthy, and free from these labors. Both the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime and “Those Winter Sundays” suggest that a parent will go to great lengths for their children's prosperity and comfort even if their children never say thank you. Those Winter Sundays focuses
have chosen to analyze are Daystar by Rita Dove and Those Winter Sundays by Robert Hayden. The poem Daystar struck me from my first reading of it because I do the same thing this woman did sometimes. The apartment I share with my husband has a balcony where I have planted some flowers, and sometimes when the whether is nice I drag a rocking chair out there into the sun and just sit and let my thoughts wander. This poem reminds me of those moments. The author uses imagery in the poem to
story. When a story is presented from a character’s point of view it gives the audience only their version of the story. This can be misleading for the audience because they do not know if what they are reading is the truth. The poems “Those Winter Sundays”, “Forgiving My Father”, and the story, The Glass Menagerie, are told from one character’s perspective. Due to the poems and story being narrated from one character’s perspective, the story becomes one-sided, which negatively affects the relationship
"My Papa's Waltz" is about the speaker's daddy who has had a liitle too much whiskey to drin, and he begins to waltz with his son. The dad is so drunk until his son was dizzy smelling the whiskey on his breath. The waltz was so clumsy the pans were sliding from the shelf. The mom looks to be disappointed and rather irritated with the father while he is dancing with his son. This tory can be viewed as a happy father, even though drunk, is just having fun with his son by dancing. On the other, by the

The lines do not employ end-stops; rather, they use enjambment, this is used to manipulate the readers in to
“My Antonia” (Title) ▪ The possessive noun shows that Jim is recounting the story from his point of view and therefore Antonia’s character is being presented from his perspective which hints possible bias/personal feelings. ▪ It is also part of Mr.Shimerda’s dialogue in the book when he requested Jim to teach Antonia speak English. ▪ “My” demonstrates Jim’s admiration for Antonia, which also relates to one quote from the book “ I’d have liked to have you for a sweetheart, or a wife, or my mother

I buy name brand detergent that is on sale and I have a coupon for it. It is my personal opinion from my own observation that the cheaper stuff just doesn 't do as good of a job as the name-brand stuff. By checking the sales ads I can usually find Wisk, Gain, or even Tide on sale. CVS usually runs Buy One Get One Free sales on these items.
