There are different entities in the way poems can be written, for example they can bring out emotions, create images, compressed ideas, rhythm, stimulate thoughts and life experiences. With poetry there are unique ways to write it as a ballad, limerick, sonnet, ode, elegy, dramatic monologue, and haiku. The poetry moves and is well written in Richard Wilbur's “Boy at the Window”. The three elements used in "Boy at the Window" are emotions, forms, rhyme and connotative device. After reading and listening to the first paragraph, the boy feels alone inside the house using the connotative device all the time. . Then the boy shows his emotions as he cries for the snowman while standing outside. The snowman would melt due to rain, wind, fire or heat which really affected how the boy felt. The real touching point is that the child fears for the snowman and is sad for the snowman. While the snowman pities the child for knowing fear when he is surrounded by “so much heat, so much light, so much love and so much fear” (Clugston). Wilbur, a poet, wrote this poem about what he experienced when he saw his son wondering why the snowman couldn't come in and join the family. After all, "the poet said it was about a real boy looking out a real window at a real snowman, so how could it be about man in a hyper-industrialized world, a boy who refuses to grow up, or a comparison between people civilized?" man and primitive man, as some claim” (Elisa, Reza and Kim)I believe that listening and reading a poem can help the reader understand what the author is talking about. For “Boy at the Window”, listening to the background music was helpful to me in understanding the poem. Wilbur's beat had two verses... center of paper... up). Adam was the first human God created in the Garden of Eden, described as beautiful. The boy is at the window experiencing what Adam was doing when he was in the Garden of Eden, which would be a beautiful place. The boy is at home, away from the winter weather and enjoying the pleasant warmth and light. While the snowman stares at the boy as if the boy chased him away like God did Adam. The main focus of the poem is on the boy and the snowman. The content, structure and attributes of poetry are used with deeply felt emotions, values, thoughtful, sober and orderly expressions. The elements did not influence my opinions on the poem, I think after reading the chapter; I agree that Wilbur is more of an emotional writer. It was fun to read “Boy in the Window” and learn about different ways of analyzing poetry.
