Please Help!! 20 Points. Read the poems "Will There Really be a 'Morning'" and "Ozymandias."


Will There Really be a "Morning"

Will there really be a “Morning?”
Is there such a thing as “Day?”
Could I see it from the mountains
If I were as tall as they?


Has it feet like Water lilies?
Has it feathers like a Bird?
Is it brought from famous countries
Of which I have never heard?


Oh some Scholar! Oh some Sailor!
Oh some Wise Man from the skies!
Please to tell a little Pilgrim
Where the place called “Morning” lies!


Ozymandias

I met a traveler from an antique land,
Who said—”Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert.... Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings,
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Hey there! :D

The form of a poem is the physical structure of the poem. 

In, "Will There Really Be a Morning" the physical structure of the paragraph is more in small increments of stanzas. They use this pattern to create emphasis on certain words or phrases, and the rhyme scheme. Comparatively, "Ozymandias" is in one bulk, like a paragraph. The form creates meaning in both. In the first poem, they use the rhyme scheme to keep you interested and thinking about the meaning of the poem. Like in the first group of stanzas, it says, "Could I see it from the mountains, if I were as tall as they?" It makes me think about the readers perspective. Would he understand something better if he had a different perspective? 

The second poem really likes to just jam a lot of words into your brain. Almost to the point where it is overwhelming, and I have to go back and slowly process what the poem is saying. "Half sunk a shattered visage lie, whose, frown..." It is very different from the first poem in that way. The first poem really makes things clear by separating the words and stanzas, with a regular rhyme scheme. The other poem makes it out as to almost be over the top, with many words and emotions thrown at you on purpose. It creates this distinct mood, almost as though it wants to be overpowering. 

I hope this helps!
