A Study of theme on nature through imagery in five of William Wordsworth's poems

In composing a poem, one of the important
considerations is the imagery that a poet uses. In
this thesis, the writer discusses how Wordsworth
presents the theme on nature through the imagery in his
poem. The poems that are going to be analyzed are:
"Gipsies", "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud", "My Heart
Leaps Up When I Behold", "There Was A Boy", and "To The
Cuckoo". In the analysis, the writer describes the
natural things that the poet uses. Then through these
natural things she analyzes how the poet uses imagery.
From the analysis, the writer finds out that in
"Gipsies" the poet depicts nature to present one's
existence. In "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud" the poet
pictures nature to show the change of mood. While in
"My Heart Leaps Up When I Behold" the poet depicts
nature to present the purity of mind. Then in "There
Was A Boy" the poet uses nature to give an image to the
shortness of human life. Lastly, in "To The Cuckoo"
the poet brings nature to present the voice of hope.
