ok i have an analysis to do for a poem. the poem i have chosen is quite short.(only three small paragraphs) my poem is called "australian scenery" by banjo paterson.
ill write down the poem:
a land of sombre, silent hills, where mountain cattle go By twisted tracks, on sidelings deep, where giant gum trees grow and the wind replies, in the oaks, to the song of the stream below.
a land where the hills keep watch and ward, silentand wide awake as those who sit by a dead campfire, and wait for the dawn to break, or those who watched by the holy cross for the dead redeemer's sake.
a land where silence lies so deep that sound itself is dead and a gaunt grey bird, like a homeless soul, drifts, noisless, overhead and the world's greatest story is left untold, and the message is left unsaid.
calling help from anyone who is good in english. all i want is a small analysis of the poem and what poetic techniques are in it.
thank you.
