In class writing

The poem only contains one stanza; however, the stanza can be divided into three major sentences. The first one starts with " Nature is what we see", the second one starts with " Nature is what we hear" and the last one starts with ” Nature is what we know". The first two sentences are quite rhythmic and after the first lines of the two sentences, there are  both phrases of things in nature, demonstrating why we can see and hear nature. I notice that there are lots of words including the E sounds like see, harmony, and sea. However, in the poem overall, there isn't an obvious rhyme pattern.

One thing that the poem shows is that nature can be found everywhere. Through the first part of the poem, she uses many examples of details that representing nature with a bright tone. The tone of the poem changes in the last part of the stanza. Poet tries to use the difference between nature's simplicity and humans' complexity to show her preference of staying with nature instead of people, and maybe the complexity of humans is what causes the poet to live reclusively.  Nature is easy to get along with.
