Bother and Harmonium
Jonah Dusauzay Harmonium and Brothers The most obvious similarity of Harmonium and Brothers is that they hit no rhyme scheme, which is a very common practice in contemporary poems and makes the writing feel less restrictive and much more human.In the 2 poems the description of the race is actually explained at the final stanza firearm the previous stanza appears to set the scene and happen to smooth the speakers thoughts, such as how the harmonium in Harmonium has soft wood case and yellowness the fingernails of its keys which is actually explaining the tidingss deep down worries of how his acquire is belatedly ageing Harmonium appears to have a somewhat nostalgic and maladjusted tone compared to Brothers more repentful tone this is due to the narrator in Harmonium appearing to be struggling to come to terms with the detail that his father will eventually leave him, and when his father does point this bulge out he is too starved of breath which shows both the resolvene ss of the relationship and the love the narrator has for his father. Brothers is a complete opposite of this, with the poem creation written in second person it makes the narrator appear to be ruminateing on the bypast there is a sense of deep regret in the writing also, as the writer explains how he is unable to almost the distance. Id set in motion which may reflect the narrator recalling a childhood memory about his brother that he is now estranged from.Both in Harmonium and Brothers the use of imagery is prevalent, in Brothers the use of imagery is shown from the start with the way the narrator describes how he is attach with his younger brother , which makes the reader appear resent the situation that he has to be with him. The use of imagery in Brothers is also used to reflect the characters contrasting emotions through the choice of verbs, were the younger brother skipped and is spouting half-dozen year old views shows the jubilance and enthusiasm of being with his olde r brother, to that degree the older brother sighs and strolls showing he is quite annoyed and devil of his brothers presence.Harmoniums use of imagery is more metaphorical than Brothers, it is used to reflect the past with the intricate details of the harmonium being described as having smokers fingers and how the organists feet has worn down down the treadles showing an association with the past and a possible want for it , so that he can have more time with his father . Harmonium and Brothers both have an oerriding theme of inevitability, with the worry the son has in Harmonium of his father dying and in Brothers the inevitability of the two brother drifting apart is shown by how the narrator is unable to close the distance. Id set in motion which is due to the fact the narrator is three years older than his brother and seems to choose his friends over his own sibling.
