Both poems, in their own ways, exhibit the theme of treating others with respect blind of their backgrounds. Angelou’s poem “On the Pulse of Morning” sets up an analogy in order to establish the notion that we live in this world and write its history together. Angelou’s poem is meant to incline the audience, particularly the American citizens, to acknowledge others and treat them with hospitality rather than hostility. In addition, the last stanza of her poem reads, “Here, on the pulse of this new day / You may have the grace to look up and out / And into your sister’s eyes, and into / Your brother’s face, your country / And say simply / Very simply / With hope— / Good morning” (Angelou 90-97). This is symbolic of the simple action of positivity in our communication that can enhance the mood of our nation. In fact, this notion is elaborated upon in Elizabeth Alexander’s poem “Praise Song for the Day”, in which it is remarked that enriching the spirit of our communication can enable us to spread love and vanquish hatred more effectively.
