PLSSSSSSSS HELPPP


how does the speakers word choice for describing flight have an impact on the poems tone high flight




Passage High flight


Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth


And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings.


Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth


Of sun-split clouds — and done a hundred things


You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung.


High in the sunlit silence, hov’ring there


I’ve chased the shouting winds along and flung


My eager craft through footless halls of air.


Up, up the long delirious burning blue


I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace


Where never lark nor ever eagle flew


And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod


The high untrespassed sanctity of space,


Put out my hand and touched the face of God.
