A Line-Storm Song By: Amanda Diaz, Valeria Lopez and Jacqueline Landeros
3
Background Written in “ A Boy’s Will” in 1913
Was intended to be a message to his wife to join him. Octets with 4 stanzas
4
Summary At first the speaker sees the bad in the storm but still asks his love to join him. Although the storm is severe the speaker sees how he and his love can surpass this temporary loss of connection between the two.
5
Analysis This poem symbolizes the meaning of how the rain and the wind is heard with a higher force than a voice of a human (Line 9). Rhyme Scheme- (abab cdcd efef) the way this poem is written could be related to the rhythm of the storm. Imagery- Frost uses imagery to give the reader an understanding of the love between the two characters. Robert Frost uses the rain in a form to explain the purification that their love needs.
6
Continuation Robert Frost uses metaphor to compare wet feet (not dry-shod) to experiences and difficulties (lines 21-22). In “Going For Water” Frost uses gnomes to portray the adventure of their relationship and in “A Line-Storm Song” he uses another figment of imagination to portray that their adventure is no longer expressed(line 11).
7
Connotation Robert Frost uses “shells” to represent Aphrodite( the goddess of love) to describe how the love they had for each other was left behind in the past. This can be described as symbolism and metaphor. Frost uses diction “gown” and “goldenrod” making the poem authentic instead of saying dress and yellow.
