Color Symbolism in Sons and Lovers Throughout Sons and Lovers, D.H. Lawrence uses colors to suggest the underlying implications of the events taking place. Three colors in particular - red, black, and white - seem to carry some sort of subtle connotation which reveals more about the characters, their actions, and their motives for those actions, than the plot or the setting alone. Tied to the color images are material images which carry the same connotative meaning: the color red is associated

In the poem "My Papa's Waltz" by Theodore Roethke, the speaker is reflecting on a childhood experience involving his father. Through diction and details, the speaker conveys his complex attitudes toward his father. When first read it, it appears the young boy is afraid of his father.

Apparently, the father likes whisky and the smell of it is remaining on his person, which causes the young boy's aversion

Bernard McLaverty’s ‘Father and Son’ and ‘Trojan Sofa’ both explore the relationships between parent and child.

Review, but I believe that this poem is worthy to be the first. Because at some point in our lives, we will all have to come to terms with death and this poem speaks to that experience. In “Death of a Young Son by Drowning”`, Margaret Atwood writes about a mother trying to cope with the loss of her son.

She sees death, however
