Analyzed by GPT4 and www.howmanysyllables.com Image by Leonardo.ai Copyright 1989 Analysis of "Togetherness" Sonnet 51 by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares, titled "Togetherness," is a reflection on unity, companionship, and the interconnectedness of nature and human relationships. The sonnet follows the traditional structure of 14 lines, typically used in English and Italian sonnets. The first quatrain (four lines) uses the metaphor of dew drops, which symbolize fascination and happiness, to suggest that these elements can heal the earth (or body, as per the footnote) and promote unity. The second quatrain continues with the metaphor of the sea, which despite its tumultuous surface, maintains a deep calm and reflects the cosmos, suggesting a sense of unity and oneness. The first tercet (three lines) shifts the focus to human relationships, lamenting the lack of good nature and true friends. The poet suggests that we need companionship to share both joy and sorrow. The final tercet uses the metaphor of the ocean's trends to suggest that we should seek deeper connections and dare to do things we wouldn't do alone. The sonnet uses a variety of poetic devices, including metaphor (dew drops as fascination and happiness, sea as unity), personification (earth having a soul), and alliteration (e.g., "Smoother our earth with their welcome rain"). The rhyme scheme appears to be ABAB CDCD EFE GGG, which is a variation of the traditional sonnet forms. Overall, the sonnet emphasizes the importance of unity and companionship, both in nature and in human relationships, and encourages the reader to seek deeper connections and dare to do things they wouldn't do alone. (GPT4) Analyze the rhyme of the poem in detail The rhyme scheme of this sonnet is a bit unconventional compared to traditional English or Italian sonnets. Let's break it down line by line: 1. Dew drops, fascination and happiness (A) 2. Smoother our earth with their welcome rain (B) 3. And summon its soul to erase the pain (A) 4. And account instead for togetherness. (B) 5. The pounding sea is still in its depthness (C) 6. While its mirrors space and the stars contain (D) 7. And the moon ebbs and flows through its domain (C) 8. Surmising a most cohesive oneness. (D) 9. In time we lack good nature and best friends (E) 10. Soul partners, brotherhood or whatever (F) 11. To share either good times or a nightmare. (E) 12. Or we start to follow the ocean's trends (G) 13. To find more roots ur our dreams remember (G) 14. Endeavoring what lone we would not dare. (G) So, the rhyme scheme is ABAB CDCD EFE GGG. The first two quatrains (four-line stanzas) follow an ABAB rhyme scheme. The third stanza is a tercet (three-line stanza) with an EFE rhyme scheme. The final tercet follows a GGG rhyme scheme, where all lines rhyme with each other. This is a unique structure, as traditional sonnets usually follow either the Italian (Petrarchan) form with an ABBA ABBA CDE CDE (or variation) rhyme scheme, or the English (Shakespearean) form with an ABAB CDCD EFEF GG rhyme scheme. The poet's choice of a different rhyme scheme adds a unique rhythm and flow to the poem, emphasizing its themes of unity and togetherness.

Sonnet 50 by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares "Live Aid" For The World We wish enough people could understand When a House Of Rock this world in pain hears As for once we got to have at our hand A pool streaming with a river of tears.

Sonnet 49 by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares Love's Force I found the old dreams scattered through sand of many seas that sailed humanity Searching for treasures and calamity That still sleep, untouched by the hunter's hand. I found passions quite hard to understand Or freedoms from that bored community From which some times we need immunity Along with fresh air and some peace of mind.

The speaker acknowledges the need for "immunity" from the pressures of society, as well as the importance of "fresh air and some peace of mind."

The poet suggests a return to a simpler time, "again medieval," where conflicts were less destructive and the climate was more favorable. The poet also speaks of love hiding "toys that batter," which are weapons according to the footnote, indicating a desire for disarmament and peace. In the sestet, the poet continues to express hope for a future where love prevails. The poet speaks of hearing "calls from heaven" and the stars celebrating, suggesting divine approval of this peaceful future.

Sonnet 46 by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares Being In Love From fairy tales that all the beauty hold When I was a child I made my dreaming And those creatures that never did get old Still in folds of my memory keep beaming.

Something, though, each night comes in crafty frame Of lovely features in a time doldrum, A castle above the mist bears my name And past princely signs take over my humdrum... Being in love I can maintain inly Beautious charms I pined ceasessly. *** Sonnet written by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares.

The sonnet follows the traditional structure of 14 lines, typically used in English and Italian sonnets. The first quatrain (four lines) introduces the speaker's childhood, filled with fairy tales and timeless creatures that continue to live in his memory. This sets a tone of nostalgia and longing for the innocence and wonder of youth. The second quatrain transitions to the speaker's present, where he is consumed by the responsibilities and demands of adulthood ("a lord of ways"). He expresses a lack of interest in the ambitions and heroes of his childhood, suggesting a disillusionment with the realities of growing up. The third quatrain introduces a nightly vision that breaks the monotony of his life. This vision, a "castle above the mist" bearing his name, symbolizes a romantic ideal or dream that brings excitement and meaning to his life. The final couplet (two lines) reveals the source of these nightly visions: being in love. The speaker suggests that love allows him to hold onto the "beautious charms" he yearned for in his youth. This implies that love has the power to restore the sense of wonder and beauty that he felt as a child. Overall, the sonnet explores the themes of nostalgia, disillusionment, love, and the power of imagination. It suggests that while adulthood may bring responsibilities and disillusionment, love can restore a sense of wonder and beauty to life. (GPT4) Analyze the rhyme of the poem in detail The sonnet follows a unique rhyme scheme that doesn't strictly adhere to the traditional English (Shakespearean) or Italian (Petrarchan) sonnet forms. The rhyme scheme of the sonnet is as follows: - First quatrain: ABAB (hold-dreaming-old-beaming) - Second quatrain: CDCD (spent-requires-meant-admires) - Third quatrain: EFEF (frame-doldrum-name-humdrum) - Final couplet: GG (inly-ceaselessly) The first three quatrains each have their own distinct sets of rhymes, while the final couplet rhymes with itself. This structure allows each quatrain to stand somewhat independently, each presenting a different stage of the speaker's life or a different aspect of his experience. The final couplet, with its self-contained rhyme, provides a succinct conclusion to the sonnet. It's also worth noting that the sonnet is written in iambic pentameter, a common meter in English poetry that consists of five pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables per line. This gives the sonnet a rhythmic quality that enhances its musicality and flow.

In addition to the rhyme scheme and meter, there are several other aspects of the poem that could be analyzed: 1-. Imagery and Symbolism: The poem is rich in imagery, from the fairy tales and timeless creatures of the speaker's childhood to the castle above the mist in his nightly vision. These images serve as symbols for different stages of the speaker's life and his evolving perceptions of love and beauty. 2-. Tone and Mood: The tone of the poem shifts from nostalgic and wistful in the first quatrain, to disillusioned and weary in the second, to hopeful and romantic in the third. This shift in tone reflects the speaker's emotional journey and his transformation through love. 3-. Theme: The central theme of the poem is the transformative power of love. Despite the disillusionment and monotony of adulthood, the speaker finds beauty and meaning in his love, which he describes as a castle above the mist that bears his name. This theme is a common one in romantic poetry and could be explored in relation to other works in this tradition. 4-. Language and Diction: The poet's choice of words contributes to the poem's overall mood and meaning. Words like "erodes," "crafty," and "humdrum" convey a sense of weariness and disillusionment, while "beaming," "lovely," and "beautious" evoke a sense of beauty and wonder. The contrast between these sets of words reflects the speaker's emotional transformation through love. 5-. Structure and Form: While the poem follows the basic structure of a sonnet with its 14 lines and iambic pentameter, its unique rhyme scheme sets it apart from traditional sonnet forms. This could be seen as a reflection of the speaker's unique experience of love, which doesn't conform to the expectations and ideals of his childhood fairy tales.

Analyzed by GPT4 and www.howmanysyllables.com Image by Leonardo.ai Copyright 1989 Analysis of "Education" Sonnet 45 by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares is a poem that explores themes of female sexuality, self-discovery, and empowerment. It is written in the traditional sonnet form, with 14 lines and a rhyming scheme of ABABCDCDEFEFGG. The first quatrain (four lines) speaks to a young woman on the cusp of womanhood, experiencing the physical changes that come with puberty. The "petals" and "moons that swell in your pelvis" are metaphors for the blossoming of femininity and the menstrual cycle, respectively. The poet encourages her not to worry about societal expectations ("where freedom is") as she navigates these changes. The second quatrain continues this theme, encouraging the young woman to explore her desires ("sweet aches") and imagination. The poet suggests that she should choose her own path ("hidden treasure"), implying that she should not feel constrained by societal norms or expectations. The third quatrain introduces the idea of finding personal happiness ("heaven") and dealing with life's challenges ("pains"). The poet encourages the young woman to build her own path ("safe road") and to strive for her goals ("reach those hills"). The final couplet (two lines) uses the metaphor of a volcano to represent the young woman's passion and potential. The "soft spot" could represent a safe space or a source of comfort, from which she can "fly" when things get too "hot" or challenging. Overall, this sonnet is a powerful message of female empowerment, encouraging young women to embrace their sexuality, navigate their own paths, and overcome challenges. (GPT4) Analyze the rhyme of the poem in detail Sonnet 45 by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares follows a slightly modified version of the Shakespearean sonnet rhyme scheme.

Sonnet written by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares. Analyzed by GPT4 and www.howmanysyllables.com Image by Leonardo.ai Analysis of "With Lore We Pay" Sonnet 43 by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares, titled "With Lore We Pay," is a contemplative piece that explores the themes of youth, wisdom, and the passage of time. It is structured in the traditional sonnet form, with 14 lines and a clear volta or turn in line 9, where the poem shifts from discussing the pitfalls of youth to the potential for growth and freedom through wisdom. The first quatrain (lines 1-4) introduces the idea of youth as a fleeting and beautiful period of life, which moves along "without demurage" or delay. The poet suggests that this period offers opportunities for those who deserve recognition to shine brightly ("fire a copious incandescence"). In the second quatrain (lines 5-8), the poet contrasts the previous idea by presenting the negative aspects of youth. Some individuals remain in a state of innocence, while others fall into "disparage" or criticism, becoming trapped under the "cruel bondage" of Bacchae and passions. The reference to Bacchae, priestesses of Bacchus, the god of wine and revelry, symbolizes the potential for youth to be consumed by hedonism and reckless behavior, leading to "desipience" or foolishness. The volta in line 9 marks a shift in tone and subject. The third quatrain (lines 9-12) suggests that it is easy to thrive when one is surrounded by abundance ("galore") and when one has little time to lament their pains or claim their achievements. However, the poet argues that youth can be extended or made more meaningful by adding "lore" or wisdom. The final couplet (lines 13-14) concludes the sonnet by suggesting that wisdom allows us to repay nature for its gifts and to gain more freedom as we embark on life's journey. This implies that while youth is a time of exploration and growth, it is through wisdom and learning that we truly come to understand and appreciate life. Overall, "With Lore We Pay" is a thoughtful exploration of the complexities of youth and the value of wisdom. It suggests that while youth is a time of potential and opportunity, it is through wisdom and understanding that we can truly make the most of our lives.

Sonnet 41 by Francisco Luis Arroyave Tabares When Innocence Breaks Away Since there is beauty that remains untold I will brake the silences and borrow The children's eyes when some clouds furrow Through sunsets and happy games they unfold. The world is a fresh garden just days old 5 Where dreams are smothered till a sparrow That sings sweet songs is felled by the arrow Of some one's instinct that can be so cold... 8 When innocence breaks away a devil Gingerly starts to build its web in which A swift darkness mixes with young fancy.

In the first quatrain (lines 1-4), the speaker expresses a desire to break the silence and capture the beauty of innocence found in children's eyes. The imagery of clouds furrowing through sunsets and happy games suggests a sense of purity and joy in the world as seen through the eyes of children.
