Answer:  In "Thomas Hoods" poem, I Remember, I Remember, Hood idolizes his ‘childish ignorance’, painting his memories with beautiful colors and images. Hood’s childhood was a time of great happiness, one which he is well aware that he cannot return to. The poem grapples equally with the idealization of childhood, and the sorrow that it must end. You can interpreter this by the way he describes how in his childhood home, and how his soul felt light and everything seemed so bright

Explanation:

You can interpreter this by the way he describes his childhood home, and how his soul felt light and everything seemed so bright, and during those times he felt closer to heaven.

Stanza 3 lines 1-6: I remember, I remember,

Where I was used to swing,

And thought the air must rush as fresh

To swallows on the wing;

My spirit flew in feathers then,

That is so heavy now,

Stanza 4 lines 5-8 It was a childish ignorance,

But now 'tis little joy

To know I'm farther off from heav'n

Than when I was a boy.
