Silver

Silver is a poem that cleverly describes the light of the


moon at night. It is written by the famous British poet,
Walter de la mare.
As well as personification, Walter used intriguing
descriptions, and similes. The lines are short and has
rhymed the poem in a rather friendly way.
He describes the setting as a quiet country side
property at night and the moon sheds its silver light
onto everything she touches. Her light is described as
silver because of how bright and beautiful it appears
to be.
To be honest, I really enjoyed this tranquil, quite
interesting poem, the language really allows you to
experience the whole scenario. He is a very talented
poet.
