The message of the poem is to not take what you have for granted. Once it is gone you will realize what you lost. The author states, "For my Love was an angel I hurt," which refers to him losing the person he loved because of his own actions. The poem displays rhythm and repetition. The phrase "Then on to," repeats displaying the change in setting. The rhyme pattern is ABAB. Something that stood out in the poem is that in the first line it says "I went to the forest to weep", however in the last line it says "So I went to the forest to die", rather than him going to the grasses to die like he stated in the middle of the poem.

The author's message in the poem displays the way that certain forms of art can affect someone, in this instance music. Through any feelings that are found in this human world, your form of art can be an escape, something that keeps you sane. From the first stanza there is hope, there is compassion, and there is simplicity all in the name of music. Whereas the second shows struggle, grit, and intensity. Through the hardest moments where life is on the line and death must be stared in the face, music was always there. Lastly, at peace. After all the trials and tribulations you can find yourself alone with music and the simple necessities in which are special to you. The use of rhymes such as "death and breath" or "sing and ring" add a striking realism to the poem. It gives the poem meaning and makes it relatable, instead of just words on a page.

The theme is the beauty of a women.The metaphor that was found in the poem was throughout the whole poem such as "Her lips were cherry red". He describes the woman to where he has run out of words to describe her.The diction in the poem was "Fresh snow blew o'er her cheek" because he talks in a formal way using words such as o'er because it's more old-time and sounds formal in a way of describing here. The tone seems to be comforting and seems to be breath taken away by the person he's expressing his love to. He seems very passionate about her.The connection that stood out most was the way he expressed his feelings for her. He went really deep into himself to describe her the way he did. He really went into his soul to express her.

The theme is that love doesn't last forever and from one day to another the love that you have for someone can fade away. Figurative language that is in this poem is a simile. Tone is very sad because they fell in love with a person and then they fall out of love with their significant other. What stood out to me is the first sentence "but love goes away" because when you love someone you expect them to love you the whole time.

The beginning lines, "Lost upon Mother Earth, I regret my looted birth," states how miserable the author feels in the world. However, near the end, the author shifts his perspective and tone into a more hopeful one. The lines, "On and on I rove, Journeying the crystal air, And the silly ways of love" show the author's eagerness to continue searching for his place in the world.
