Theme: In today's absurd world, we have become zombies. I walk the lonely streets. populated by zombie-like people. a dark secret huddled behind facades of truth. An old man in the doorway sits and stares.

and your memory lulls my heart. hardens to ice within my soul. My first love's memory soothes my aching heart. I sit under an old tree and ponder. only green trees and cool shade.

Poetry by: Louise Elisabeth Glück. When it comes to the intensity of her feelings for her mother, Louise Elisabeth Glück outdoes any other writer.This is how she was praised after winning the Nobel Prize:

As a child I dreamt of chasing fireflies. singing pastoral songs throughout the endless night,. sending a wink to the moon. I caught one when I was five. Crushed it tight, not to lose it.

Conext: Our quest to find meaning of life in this world is often disrupted by the icy grasp of absurdity. People who are sensitive to the absurd world can experience meaningless tragedies. This poem also explores the theme of loneliness. Recently, I read about a woman who died after jumping into a river. Through this poem, I want to express my sorrow for that woman.

You are the embodiment of love. Since then, I have adored you most. Do you not hear the cry of the children who sleep on dirt floors?. — the dark and cold embrace of death. Or the landscape of poverty that swallowed his mother.

In most cases, life is just a journey to the grave. I believe that we should live every day as if it were our last. After reading this poem by Edmund Vance Cooke, I realized how important it is to keep your head no matter what you're going through. This poem has a curious tone when the poet asks whether you have accepted life with a joyful and resolute heart.
