    List of Poems to Identify the Metaphors -

    i. Time, You Old Gipsy Man (16 Lines) — — — Ralph Hodsgon

    Time, You Old Gipsy Man


    Ralph Hodsgon

    Time, You Old Gypsy Man


    Will you not stay,
    Put up your caravan
    Just for one day?
    All things I'll give you
    Will you be my guest,
    Bells for your jennet
    Of silver the best,
    Goldsmiths shall beat you
    A great golden ring,
    Peacocks shall bow to you,
    Little boys sing.
    Oh, and sweet girls will
    Festoon you with may,
    Time, you old gypsy,
    Why hasten away?

    [16 Lines]
    ii. Dreams - Langston Hunghes

    Dreams
    Langston Hunghes

    Hold fast to dreams


    For if dreams die
    Life is a broken-winged bird
    That cannot fly.

    Hold fast to dreams


    For when dreams go
    Life is a barren field
    Frozen with snow.
    iii. Ode on a Greecian Urn (Last 10 Lines) — — — John Keats

    Ode on a Greecian Urn


    John Keats

    O Attic shape! Fair attitude! with brede


    Of marble men and maidens overwrought,
    With forest branches and the trodden weed;
    Thou, silent form, dost tease us out of thought
    As doth eternity: Cold Pastoral!
    When old age shall this generation waste,
    Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe
    Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,
    "Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all
    Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.
    [Last 10 Line]
    iv. She Walks in Beauty — — — Lord Byron

    She Walks in Beauty


    Lord Byron

    She walks in beauty, like the night


    Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
    And all that’s best of dark and bright
    Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
    Thus mellowed to that tender light
    Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

    One shade the more, one ray the less,


    Had half impaired the nameless grace
    Which waves in every raven tress,
    Or softly lightens o’er her face;
    Where thoughts serenely sweet express,
    How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.

    And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,


    So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
    The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
    But tell of days in goodness spent,
    A mind at peace with all below,
    A heart whose love is innocent!
    v. Hope is the Thing with Feathers — — — Emily Dickison

    Hope is the Thing with Feathers


    Emily Dickison

    “Hope” is the thing with feathers -


    That perches in the soul -
    And sings the tune without the words -
    And never stops - at all -

    And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -


    And sore must be the storm -
    That could abash the little Bird
    That kept so many warm -

    I’ve heard it in the chillest land -


    And on the strangest Sea -
    Yet - never - in Extremity,
    It asked a crumb - of me.
