what does he promise to do in daffodil chapter by Howard herrick
Answers
Answer:
If you’re asking about the poem ’To Daffodils’ by Robert Herrick, then the theme of that poem is simply about how our time in this world is too short. That beauty doesn’t last forever, and goes away in the blink of an eye. Or as Robert puts it ‘We have short time to stay, as you, we have as short a spring.’ The poet compared life and beauty/youth to the time of spring, as it quickly passes away.
If you’re concerned about the poem ‘The Daffodils’ by William Wordsworth, then it is concerned more about loneliness and borderline depression. The poet compares himself to a floating cloud wandering hopelessly above valleys and hills. It is then when he encounters a field of daffodils by the side of a lake, dancing and fluttering in the wind as if people performing a waltz in a ballroom. The poet, being previously sad and suffering from loneliness, unexpectedly finds quite joy and bliss watching the dancing flowers stretched along the shore. And now, this scene, this wonderful memory will always bring him joy and happiness whenever he would find himself being restless or in despair. I believe the poem also explains the idea of finding joy and happiness in the most unexpected and unpredictable ways.
I hope this answer helped.
