Detailed explanation-1: -“On Aging” expresses its aging speaker’s desire to be treated with dignity rather than condescension. Using blunt humor, the speaker knocks down a series of common assumptions about older people: that they’re lonely, pitiable, fragile, lazy, dying, and/or fundamentally different from their younger selves.
Detailed explanation-2: -The theme of a poem is the message an author wants to communicate through the piece. The theme differs from the main idea because the main idea describes what the text is mostly about. Supporting details in a text can help lead a reader to the main idea.
Detailed explanation-3: -The poem meditates on the relationship between human beings and nature, and uses that relationship to explore the transition from childhood to adolescence. As the speaker grows up, his relationship to nature changes. Instead of enjoying the natural world with innocent curiosity, he finds it threatening and disgusting.
Detailed explanation-4: -Dickinson’s poem is about her journey through life and her outlook on it. Donne’s poem is about how death shouldn’t be proud of what it does to people and how to overlook it.
