Answer 1

Answer:

1. The poem 'The Perfect Life' presents the picture of life through beautiful and contrasting images. The poet says that a short and meaningful life is far better than a life that is long but uneventful.

2. To Sleep" is a poem by William Wordsworth. ... He lies sleepless all night, wanting to be able to sleep, but he cannot. He imagines a flock of sheep leisurely passing by, one after one. He tries imagining the sound of rain, the murmur of bees, the fall of rivers, winds and seas, smooth fields, calm waters and clear sky.
