Question

Can you give me a explanation on the moon by robert louis

Answer 1

Answer:

In the poem "The Moon" by R.L Stevenson, the moon is personified. It can be associated with the moon goddess herself who likes to watch the creatures of earth silently from far above.

The moon is compared to the shape of a round clock on a wall. Just like the clock determines the time, the moon signifies the night time.

She spectates the thieves stealing at night and the birds on trees. The "squalling' of the cat and the "squeaking" of the mouse with the howling dog creates a sharp contrast to the silence of the night.

The children and the flowers are asleep as if they are denying the moon's beauty and light whereas the animals seem to like to spend the night
