Parting Poem by Charlotte Brontë
Parting
THERE'S no use in weeping,
Though we are condemned to part:
There's such a thing as keeping
A remembrance in one's heart:
There's such a thing as dwelling
On the thought ourselves have nurs'd,
And with scorn and courage telling
The world to do its worst.
We'll not let its follies grieve us,
We'll just take them as they come;
And then every day will leave us
A merry laugh for home.
When we've left each friend and brother,
When we're parted wide and far,
We will think of one another,
As even better than we are.
Every glorious sight above us,
Every pleasant sight beneath,
We'll connect with those that love us,
Whom we truly love till death !
In the evening, when we're sitting
By the fire perchance alone,
Then shall heart with warm heart meeting,
Give responsive tone for tone.
We can burst the bonds which chain us,
Which cold human hands have wrought,
And where none shall dare restrain us
We can meet again, in thought.
So there's no use in weeping,
Bear a cheerful spirit still;
Never doubt that Fate is keeping
Future good for present ill !
ONE: In this Classic Poem Of The Day, the main subject is about love and loss. The poetess experiences deep love for someone who cannot reciprocate these feelings, resulting in a deep sense of longing and heartbreak.
MY FINAL RESPONSE: Excellent poem but with a very very sad tune.5 Stars! Poems can make us think thoroughly. Especially the Great Classic Ones
SEVEN: This poem contains a courageous and encouraging consolation to the grief-stricken, allowing them to regain power over death. Congratulations tot the closest relatives of the late great English poetes
SIX: Every pleasant sight and every glorious moment is connected to those loved, transcending physical separation. Even as they sit alone by the fire, hearts can meet in thought, breaking the ties that bind them.
FIVE: The poem suggests an affinity stronger than death, with both parties striving to bridge the distance imposed by mortality. As the poet reflects on deceased friends and family, she sees them as 'even better than us'.
FOUR: The inevitability of death does not discourage the poet; instead, it inspires courage. She defiantly tells the world to "do the worst, " emphasizing her bright spirit.
