The Evening Star The Evening Star By Chinmayee Sakhare- Sound and Form James Prince – Poet Background and connection, Theme and Deeper Meaning Jerry Chen- Figurative Language and Imagery

The Poem Evening Star 'Twas noontide of summer, And mid-time of night; And stars, in their orbits, Shone pale, thro' the light Of the brighter, cold moon, 'Mid planets her slaves, Herself in the Heavens, Her beam on the waves. I gazed awhile On her cold smile; Too cold- too cold for me- There pass'd, as a shroud, A fleecy cloud And I turned away to thee, Proud Evening Star, In thy glory afar, And dearer thy beam shall be; For joy to my heart Is the proud part Thou bearest in Heaven at night, And more I admire Thy distant fire, Than that colder, lowly light.

Figurative language and imagery Some metaphors include slaves and the planets On her cold smile is a personification As a shroud, A fleecy cloud is and example of simile Poe repeats cold, light, and night. Poe calling it a proud evening star is personification because pride is a human emotion.

Sound and Form Sound - There is rhythm in the poem. There are pauses after every comma, which creates the rhythm of the poem. This poem is not free verse because it has a rhyme scheme. Form - All letters are capitalized in the beginning of each line. There are commas and semicolons at the end of every line. The rhyme scheme is abcb for the first eight lines. Then, for the the next fifteen lines, the form is aabcc.

Theme and Deeper Meaning I Think that the evening star is a metaphor for a better place, such as an after life. In the poem the speaker would be the moon. The moon would see beyond it a vast space and a star that stands out. The star is giving off heat and by the time the speaker the heat is just cold. The theme is that there is always a better place but it is not always close.

Poet Background and Connection to Poem Edgar Allan Poe was famous for his dark tales; His poems are usually narrative, his most famous poem is probably The Raven. He was very descriptive when writing. His imagery and figurative language made his poems great. I think that his connection to this poem is that he had a pretty bad life. He was poor since his adopted father stopped helping him. I think to cope with his bad life he saw a better place. A star distant in the sky, a heaven.
