The Art of drowing

 This is a synopsis regarding time and its lack of patience .At first glance,you would say that the main idea is the act of drowning but it is not.The true protagonist is time;which is clearly stated in the tittle "The Art of Drowning".It is simple enough to say that we have envision how it  would  seem when your going through this situation due to its straight forward image conveyed.In this whole orchestrated escaped of images such as water, a fish,and cinematic/picturesque nations achieve to emphasize the them e of the poem.Collins simply states that time is waisting away and we do not realize  until  an event such as a near-death experience occurs.This is an eye opening realization on how precious life and how easily it can be taking away; which leads us to value every little second of a day.

Come not when I am dead

Come not when I am dead Come not,when I am dead, To drop thy foolish tears upon my grave, To trample round my fallen head, And vex the unhappy dust thou woudst not save. There let the wind sweep and plover cry; But thou,go by Child,if it were thine error or thy crime I care no longer,being all unblest; Wed whom thou will,but I am sick of Time, And I desire to rest. Pass on,weak heart,and leave to where I lie: Go by,go by. -Tennyson

Break,break,break

Break,break,break On thy cold gray stones,O sea! And I would that my tongue could utter Tha thoughs that arise in me. O,well for the fisherman's boy, That he shouts with his sister at play! O,well for the sailor lad, That he sings in  his boat on the boy! And the stately ships go on To their haven under the hill; But O for the touch of vanish hand, And the sound of a voice that is still; Break,break,break At the foot of thy crags,O sea! But the tender grace of a day that is  dead Will never come back to me. -Tennyson

A Farewell

A Farewell Flow down,cold rivulet,to the sea, Thy tribute wave deliver: No more by thee my steps shall be, For ever and for ever. Flow, softly flow,by lawn and lea, A rivulet then a river: No where by thee my steps shall be for ever and for ever. But here will sigh thine alder tree And here thine aspen shiver; And here by thee will hum the bee, For ever and for ever. A thousand suns will stream on thee, A thousand moons will quiver; But not by thee my steps shall be, For ever and for ever. -Tennyson
