The speaker believes jugglers are needed to please balls which love to fall, "It takes a sky-blue juggler with fivered balls." The speaker notices how the balls enjoy the juggler, "[the balls] cling to their courses there, swinging a small heaven about his ears." The speaker feels the juggler would rather be present and focused on what is in front of him rather than dream. "He reels that heaven in.. and trades it all for a broom, a plate, a table." The juggler is also seen as an entertainer for kids, "And all come down, and he bows and says good-bye." The speaker reflects on his experience watching the juggler perform, and he views him as a winner, "who has won for once over the world's weight." The speakers feelings toward the juggler reveal themes such as reality in the sense that the juggler is solely putting on a show in order to please his audience, but at the end of the day he does not believe in his own tricks. I know that the speaker is amazed by the juggler because he is a kid watching a performance that he is unable to do himself. The speaker watches the juggler intently looking for his source of control and power. The speaker even tries to connect the juggler's actions with works that seemed heavenly, which can be connected to superior. The juggler has found a way to do the impossible by manipulating gravity, "the broom's balancing up on his nose.." I noticed that the speaker repeatedly uses the word "heaven" when describing the juggler's actions, which indicate that the juggler's behavior is seemingly unreal.

Richard Wilbur, author of the “Juggler”, used great diction, tone, and imagery to help portray his message pertaining to the juggler. In the opening stanza, Wilbur begins speaking about a “ball...bounc[ing]” and how brilliant it is, yet humans let it “settles and for[get]” how special a juggler is at bouncing a ball. At this point Wilbur's feels that humans don’t actually appreciate earth, therefore “it takes a sky-blue juggler with five red balls to shake out gravity up” and then this helps humans actually see how awesome earth can be. Soon Wilbur speaks highly of the juggler and even insist that he has a lot of control, especially since he is able to “spin of worlds,” which shows his complexity with juggling. Not only is he able to spin worlds, he soon trades the round things for objects as “a broom, a plate, and a table.” This stanza in particular displays how Wilbur knows just how advanced the juggler is and Wilbur also includes objects as a broom,  a plate and a table so that he connects with his audience because those objects are one used in everyday life by humans. The juggler was juggling balls but then he goes to juggle different shape objects and he still is able to balance it out so that the juggling contines. Wilbur included this so that humans are able to see that even a juggler juggles with eveyday things but he continues to complete his task at hand, even if he “is tired.” (Line 26) Wilbur overall feels that the juggler is talented at what he does because it’s a complicated job, yet he maintains balance “over the worlds weight.” (Line 32)

The juggler, in the poem “Juggler” by Richard Wilbur, seems to play as some sort of god in this poem. The speaker describes the juggler’s balls as “not a light-hearted thing” and states “falling is what it love, and the Earth falls” in lines 2-3, this leads me to think that the juggler is juggling the world in his palms. The author describes the show as if it’s god’s work by bringing in the element of life and heaven. The juggler is shown shaking “our” gravity, wheeling the world in his hands, and “swinging a small heaven about his ear,” lines 7-9. Wheeling the world in his hand reminds me of the cycle of life circling around and ending in his hand everytime. As if you’re thrown in the air, life and have kids, and then god catches you and engulfs you in death then the new cycle begins. Later the juggler “trades in” a broom, a plate, and a table showing the many jobs a god juggles in order to sustain life as if the other items are weather, other animals, and the stars. The juggler then bows and says “goodbye” as he leaves the world he created to live and expand alone.

In the “Juggler”, written by Richard Wilbur, I analyzed that the author was amazed at the abilities that the Juggler displayed during his/her act. Wilbur connects the way that the Juggler works with these “five red balls” as a way to bring heaven to earth. In some way, this heaven is like when a child eats its first piece of candy, it’s more than delightful and it’s more than just a piece of candy, it’s the joy and happiness that it brings with it. As the Juggler begins his act, Wilbur described the experience in the beginning as “shak[ing] our gravity up”. The very first moment of the act brought a new, lighter, and brighter feeling to being in the Juggler’s presence. The Juggler starts to make Wilbur feel like he’s walking on air and is floating in this new beginning of a new universe. As the act continues, “the spin of [the] worlds” starts to reveal itself to the author and further makes his curiously peak at higher levels. Once adding a few more tricks to his act, Wilbur exclaims “Damn, what a show... the boys stamp, and the girls shriek”. The grand finale has taken place and has taken Wilbur to an entirely new place in his life and everyone else around him. The connection of heaven has finally reached earth and all the humans are able to experience what the Juggler has already had knowledge of — happiness.

In Richard Wilbur’s poem, “ Juggler”, the juggler seems to be a provider/creator, almost god-like, for the audience and objects he works with. I feel like the balls that the juggler is tossing in the air represents us humans and the movement of the balls represents our lives. In the first stanza, when pertaining to the balls, it says “falling is what it loves,”. It also goes on to say, It takes a sky-blue juggler with five red balls… To shake our gravity up”. The Juggler is completely in control of the balls. When the ball is left to bounce by itself, it will eventually, completely stop bouncing and left motionless on the ground. With the Juggler, however, he is able to throw it in the air on a set path over and over until he doesn’t feel like having control of the balls anymore. The Juggler is able to create a “heaven” for the balls to travel in but not forever. The life of the balls are temporary as the Juggler goes on and “trades it all for a broom, a plate, and a table.” When the Juggler is done with this trick he goes ahead and moves onto the next, as if he is moving on to the next life/toy.

As reading through “The Juggler” by Richard Wilbur, I notice that it’s more of a in dept type of  show with the descriptions of how the audience react to the way a magical experience itself is being introduced from the beginning. Meaning the way it’s described for the very beginning as to how the balls initially starts off in the juggler’s hands. “A ball will bounce less and less..” indicating that it starts off with a subtle type of motion not touch much but bouncing .. something very small .  Introducing the very beginning of the show how it starts of while using an analogy to try and find a way to gain the audience attention to the show. Using the explicit well developed explanation of descriptions to explain the actions of juggling the ball into motion. The author feels as if the audience should understand the process it takes to be a juggler. The poetic think as if it can be a way to escape the fairy tail fantasy, the way the balls move the earth “ shake our earth gravity up”. The authors wants the audience wants to show how the balls in his eyes moving to shake the world’s spheres and how he envision the balls into the sky movements. Later on in the poem the author says that the juggler moves to the next stage level, placing  “a  broom, a plate, a table” onto parts of his body to show that is propersing onto a level that is about to end the show. The show is coming to an end the big finale is approaching. “ Balancing up on his nose , and the plate whirls..” Author is suggesting that he’s making a huge surprise to end his show. Stating “...for once we have won the world’s weight” meaning the show is over and the audience is satisfied and pleased at what they’ve noticed and endured in the making of the show.

In “ The Juggler “ by Richard Wilbur the speaker feels admiration and is  thankful for the juggler because he feels as though people have taken for granted the brilliance of their  surroundings / daily life  and how it relates to themselves.  “ So in our hearts from brilliance settles and is forgot” People forgot the beauty in the everyday events that happen such as gravity’s control over something like a ball.  But the juggler  is able to reshow that beauty to his audience in his performance. “ It takes a sky-blue juggler with five red balls to shake our gravity up.” The juggler is “defying” gravity with his act which brings attention to what most have forgot. The second stanza emphasizes the beauty in the jugglers act that he admires. “ Swinging a small heaven about his ears.” . He describes the juggling balls as small heavens which suggest that the little event of juggling is actually bigger than it seems . I believe he is using the juggler and his balls to represent everyday life and activities that everybody completes because in the third stanza he relates the heavens the juggler is juggling to everyday items. “ He reels that heaven in, Landing it ball by ball, And trades it all for a broom, a plate, a table.” These are items that everyday people “ juggle” so I interpret the stanza as saying that everyday people juggle task too and those task hold significance to them like small heavens. In the fourth stanza people are touched by the jugglers performance because it relates to their own everyday experiences . In the final stanza the juggler is tired from the weight of the performance just like people are tired from the everyday actions they take . For this reason the speaker admires the juggler and is thankful that he reminds the audience of the everyday beauty of themselves and their surroundings.

In Richard Wilbur’s poem, “Juggler”, it is clear to state that the speaker of this poem feels that the juggler is entertaining and inspirational towards his attitude towards the world. Wilbur develops these feelings through sound and imagery. For example, in stanza seven Wilbur states the sound “Whee” to express that the speaker is entertained by the “sky-blue juggler” juggling “five red balls”. The sound “Whee” represents entertainment because the sound is related to someone enjoying a certain moment or what people initially think of is someone on a rollercoaster. More textual evidence to support that the speaker feels that the juggler is entertaining is after he mentions that the juggler has a table on his toe and that “ the broom’s Balancing up on his nose, and the plate whirls On the tip of the broom!”. This image of the juggler doing these amazing things demonstrates that the speaker sees entertainer things.  After the speaker describes the things the juggler did, he says “ Damn, what a show, we cry”. Not only does this phrase represent how amazed the speaker feels about the juggler, but also how the rest of the audience feel about the juggler as well. Once the juggler finishes his performance the speaker and audience “batter our hands”. Wilbur didn’t simply put that the speaker clapped his hands, but said “batter” to emphasis how much the speaker really enjoyed the juggler.
The speaker not only feels that the juggler is entertaining , but also inspirational toward his attitude about the world. Wilbur conveys a theme that even though the world is sad, there are still good times to be grateful about. In the context of the “Juggler”, the world symbols balls and the good times are the juggler. Evidence to support this theme is when Wilbur stated that after the world has “ settle and is forgot”, to repair that is the juggler and five red balls. This is how the speaker’s feelings towards the juggler demonstrates some thematic ideas. The speaker gains inspirational feelings about the juggler because he realizes that the juggler is who brings joy to his world after Wilbur states that the juggler, “reels that heaven[ good times ] in”, by juggling. In other words, the juggler inspires the speaker to realize that there are good times in the world.

Following my reading of “Juggler” by Richard Wilbur, I can conclude that the Wilbur feels that the Juggler is somewhat unparalleled and godlike. Wilbur begins the poem by explaining that “falling is what it[the ball] loves to do, which makes it necessary for “a… juggler… to shake our gravity up.” Including the detail that the ball loves falling makes the detail of “a” juggler being the one for the job even more important; it highlights the aspect of the juggler being the only one capable of dealing with the balls. The incomparable job of the juggler is also magnified through “cry” of the boys and girls in the audience screaming “what a show.” He is being celebrated for the one of a kind job that “a sky-blue juggler with five red balls” can do. Moving along, the author presents a godlike image of the juggler with the insertion of the juggler “swinging a small heaven about his ears.” The detail of the motion of the balls being compared to heaven makes the light of the juggler seem almost divine like, being that he controls the motion of the balls with their “swinging.” In addition to that, Wilbur continues with the mention of heaven as he explains that “with a gesture sure and noble he[the juggler] reels that heaven in.” The author’s description of the “gesture” of the juggler being “sure and noble” as he pulls in the motion of the balls or of "heaven" connects the aspects of a godlike figure's nobility/righteousness during the process of their "job" to that of a juggler.  Lastly, the closing of the poem with the audience battering their hands and announcing the juggler as the one "who has won for once over the world's weight" emphasizes the audience's uplifting and praising of the juggler as someone of honorability. This better supporst the idea of Wilbur thinking of the juggler as someone with godlike qualities.

During my first time reading “Juggler” by Richard Wilbur, I had began with the mindset that he was going deep into the depths of the human emotion and behavior. Journeying into the deep depths of the brain hoping to shine an advanced light on the human brain. Giving them knowledge and new power. But instead, it was just the awe with the Juggler that fueled the poem. The way he maneuvered the balls and balanced the plate on the stick on his nose! The way the crowd grew deeply infatuated with this juggler and how talented he is. Their anxiety builds as he begins to wobble, showing that the crowd is deeply in tune with him. This juggler had mastered an art many people can’t even manage to attempt: the art of balance and order. And I wondered if he felt like he carried the weight of keeping those people happy on those shoulders or if he felt carefree and in his own world. I could also come to assume that the author viewed his movements as graceful as a ballerina’s as he juggles the balls, “with a gesture sure and noble/ He reels that heaven in/ Landing it ball by ball…” (Wilbur, ln. 15-16). He adds another difficulty to his trick and I now understand by the 3rd reading that Wilbur meant when he said that the Juggler had overcome the “world’s weight” (Wilbur, ln. 30). As it turns out, that weight was to keep the crowd pleased to the Juggler at that moment. And so he did.

While reading "The Juggler" I believed that the author, like the individuals in the audience, was mesmerized or fascinated by the show of the juggler and that he could explain the actions of the audience in such great detail because he has felt the exact same feeling about the juggler before. In the first stanza, Wilbur tries to compare the falling of a ball to the falling of earth and ends by saying that, "so in our hearts from brilliance settles and is forgot," which I think he means that  because we are so familiar with the motion of the ball like we are familiar with the earth we encounter every single day, we forget its significance and its value. Additionally, he uses words like "resilience" and "brilliance" which have positive connotations, to communicate the value of earth which human beings have lost sight of. Therefore, at the end of stanza one, he says "It takes a sky-blue juggler with five red balls," because we are unfamiliar with how to juggle balls and he uses color contrast to illustrate that we need an act of uniqueness or something different to catch the attention of the people in the world. The only way an individual can present a problem, humans have lost sight of the real value of earth, and present a solution, that it takes something different to catch their attention and show them the value they have overlooked, is a person who has not only felt the feeling of concentration before but has physically experienced all of this to absolutely know that it will work. However, this is only one message that he is portraying in this poem, towards the end of the poem he begins to describe the performance and suddenly it comes to an end and it isn't talked about anymore. It's almost like they ,being the audience, had forgotten about the "amazing" act already and was moving on to the " next "amazing" thing because at the end of stanza four it states, "and all come down, and he bows and says goodbye." However, I feel like this isn't exactly how the author believes the performance from the juggler should be treated because you shouldn't forget brilliant acts such as this one. you should cherish and remember these moments. In the last stanza at the end he says that "for him we batter our hands who has won for once over the world's weight." In this case he proves that being different and something new does standout to the audience and results in admiration. This stanza proves that the solution he introduced in the first stanza works.

After thoroughly reading and annotating “The Juggler” by Richard Wilbur, I strongly believe that Wilbur feels as though the Juggler is powerful and talented. Wilbur, in the opening stanza, states, “Falling is what it loves, and the earth falls..It takes a sky-blue jogger with five red balls...To shake our gravity up.” The Juggler can go against the forces of gravity but regular humans like himself are not capable. The fact that he uses the phrase, ‘It takes a’ highlights the specific talent the Juggler has. Wilbur also admires and is amazed by the work of the Juggler because in the fourth stanza he exclaims, “Oh, on his toe the table is turning, the broom’s balancing up on his nose, and the plate whirls on the tip of the broom! Damn, what a show we cry.”  Wilbur takes note to the extraordinary actions of each object as the Juggler, juggles them in the air. Wilbur’s ‘Damn’ comment reflects how amazed he feels because often times when one is in a state of amazement the word ‘Damn’ comes to play because they are left speechless. And although Wilbur uses the term ‘cry’ he does not mean it as in expressing distress or grief but as in a jovial shout or exclamation. Lastly, it can be implied that Wilbur and his companions applauded the Juggler after his performance. In the final stanza he states, “For him we batter our hands.” Before the final stanza the Juggler bows and says goodbye indicating that the show is over. Therefore by inserting that phrase in the final stanza the reader interprets ‘batter’ to mean clapping. And clapping is usually done to demonstrate satisfaction or that the performance was splendid at the climax of the show.
