RM+Analyzing+the+theme

The three poems I chose to do my Eating poetry assignment for was Dreams, by Langston Hughes, Big dreams and Bigger dreams by Sumeet Mukherjee and lastly Dreams, Dreams by N.W. Carney. The theme I chose to write about for the project was dreams. All of these poems share a similar message but differ from each other in a lot of ways. For example the poem Big Dreams and Bigger dreams is trying to say it is a must to have dreams and try to materialize that the dreams you are trying to accomplish are possible. While the poem Dreams, Dreams, is saying how some dreams are different from each other and some are harder to come true than others. Even though the message is different they are under the same theme, dreams. Besides the message, the theme is also relevant in every poem. Also, some poems give off stronger messages than others,

The three poems are similar and different. Also some of the poems repeat words like in the poem by Langston Hughes he repeats the line "hold fast to dreams" and in Big Dreams and Bigger Dreams the word materialize gets repeated a few times showing how important it is to materialize your dreams. Also the poems have a lot of imagery to offer. "Life is like a broken-winged bird that can not fly" show us how life with out dreams is like a bird hat can not fly meaning he is unstable and can not support its self. Some more imagery is "So that I can put my whole heart and soul for the bigger dreams to materialize " It shows us how one man would put all of his heart and soul so his dream s can come true.E ven though the poems have things in common they are also different. They are different because share different message but the messages are similar, whether it is hold onto your dreams and do not let them go in the poem Dreams or to materialize bigger dreams and do anything you can to make it come true in the poem Big dreams and Bigger dreams.

I know that the theme is evident in each poem because my theme for this project is, dreams, and the word dreams is in every title. Also, the poetry has the word dream in it. I think the poems messages are more important for understanding why the word dream, is used where it is in context. The poems Dreams, Dreams by N.W. Carney gets the point across that all dreams are different and some dreams come easier to others. The metaphor, It's all just a game a window a door means if your dream is behind an open window you can see your dream and you can go to it easier, but if your dreams is behind a locked door your journey is going to be more challenging. The message behind the poem Big Dreams and Bigger dreams is trying to reach for your dream and making yourself believe you can accomplish your dream. Lastly the final poems message is hold onto your dreams because with out them your life is like a broken winged bird. All of the messages the poems are getting across to the reader makes it clear that the theme dreams is evident in every poem.

The poem Big Dreams and Bigger Dreams had the most effect on me. I think it did because I could connect to the poem. I think it is very beautifully written and has great usage of words and metaphors. I connect to it because I can't help thinking what if I have a dream I can not reach or realize what true potential I have. I hope my dreams will come true but right now I still can't help wondering. The poem really leaves you thinking after you read it and keep wanting to know more.
