"the corn harvest"
by william carlos
williams
summer!
the painting is organized
about a young
reaper enjoying his
noonday rest
completely
relaxed
from his morning labors
sprawled
in fact sleeping
unbuttoned
on his hack
an excerpt from "after
apple picking"
by robert frost
my long two-pointed
inted
ladder's sticking through a
tree
toward heaven still.
and there's a barrel that
didn't fill
beside it, and there may be
two or three
apples i didn't pick upon
some bough.
but i am done with apple-
picking now.
essence of winter sleep is
how is frost's presentation of the subject different than
williams's?
o williams is complimentary toward the workers, but
frost is critical
williams's characters are eager to return to work, but
frost's are not
williams explains the challenges of the harvest, but
frost only mentions the fruit
williams speaks as an observer, but
participant in the harvest
frost speaks as
mark this and return
save and exit
