Poetry
by Pablo Neruda
Pablo neruda vividly narrates his experience of creativity and the moments of great poetic inspiration. Neruda's views of personification in the first two lines truly sets tone of the poem,
"And it was at that age...
Poetry arrived in search of me..."
With this symbol statement the writer tells the reader that writing is not simply an action that he performs. But rather it's a passion that overpowers him.
Neruda had a strong compulsion to write poetry. At the beginning, the speaker didn't have the confidence to write poetry. However, he soon becomes aware of the impulse to write poetry. But says that he didn't know when and where it came from. The poet was 'without a face' before poetry arrived. The poet is face with the reality of discovering the creativity which lay forgotten.
By the end of the poem, the poet 'finds himself' as part of something, part of void, mystery, part of abyss,... He finds himself going with the flow, wheeling with the stars, and expresses his delight in writing the first line when we says "My heart broke loose on the wind..." Using beautiful imagery, the poet expresses his joy of being part of the creation and the awareness obtained from the nature of the need to create.
