Life by Charlotte Brontë is a three stanza poem with an alternating line rhyme scheme. This alternate rhyme scheme holds steady throughout the entirety of the poem except for the first and third lines in which “dream” and “rain” do not rhyme. This poem was published in 1846 under Brontë’s pen name, Currer Bell. It was under this name that she published, along with her two sisters, Anne and Emily, (writing under the names, Acton and Ellis Bell) Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell. “Life” was included in this volume.

 

Summary of Life

Brontë crafted this poem with a fairly simple message in mind. She is seeking to dispel the myth, or any dark thoughts one might believe in, that life is necessary bad, dark, and unpleasant. Throughout the first stanza her speaker takes on a number of elements of life that one might consider to be disagreeable and breaks them down to their simpler, happier, parts. She begins by saying that life is not some kind of dark dream. In fact, unpleasant things such as clouds are transient, and rain “will make the roses bloom.” Why should one be upset over the rain when such loveliness comes after it.

The second stanza is simpler and shorter in which the speaker is “merrily” and “cheerily” celebrating the “sunny hours” of Life.

The last stanza is the longest and is minimizing the power of Death; though it may take loved ones away hope will always rebound and win out against darkness. She concludes the poem by stating that there is nothing in life which can quell courage, not even death.
