Question

Conclusion of the poem statue but James Reeves

Answer 1

James Reeves describes the sea in 3 different parts of the year. In the 1st stanza the sea is compared by a metaphor ta a hungry dog. This shows that in the cold winter days the sea is very rough. By the repetition of ' bones ,bones , bones , bones ' the poet shows us that he is hungry. In the 2nd stanza the poet now describes the sea to a playful dog . Here the dog is very energetic. While in the third stanza the poet describes the sea as a calm dog. This happens mostly during summer. It lets people enjoy and have fun. The rhythm is not regular such as the mood of the sea.
