Thanatopsis

What's romantic about this poem was that life still goes on when someone dies. When someone is put in the ground, they are growing into a tree, sand, and grass anything. As students in class was saying, the man was talking about mother nature. "She has a voice of gladness, and a smile and eloquence of beauty, and she glides into his darker musings, with a mild and gentle sympathy, that steals away their sharpness, ere he is aware". In the beginning of the poem, it's a happy mode then it gets into the middle a little bit and get's sad like someone has died. When someone dies, everyone would go back to their self and live a happy life like nothing really happened. "The gay will laugh, when thou art gone, the solemn brood of care plod on, and each one as before will chase his favourite phantom". The people probably know that who ever dies that they know are not coming back so why should they be sad for the rest of their life. Live happy and live everyday like it was your last day. Live life to the fullest.
