Dreams By: Langston Hughes
By Clayton Curtis :
Tittle:
I think this poem will be about a kid doing his dreams in the future.
Paraphrase:
Let dreams last,because your life will be a frozen barrier and a bird that cannot fly
Connotation:
Life is a broken-winged bird:I think this means that when you don't have dreams you don't have a purpose in life.
Life is a frozen barrier:I think that this means when you don't have dreams your life stopped.
Attitude:
I think that the speaker is peaceful and depressed,because of the things she speaks of in her poem like the broken-winged bird and frozen barrier.Also the way she spoke in the poem.
Shift:
I feel like there is no shift in this poem because it just seems sad the whole poem is depressing.
Title:
Now the tittle seems like dreams are great thing to have and the poem is talking why and how they are a great thing to have.
Theme:
I think the total theme of the poem is that when you don't have a dream your life stops,because there is no reason to work for a goal.
