The poem occurs in a specific situation at a critical moment. character in the poem exposes his or her innermost thoughts and Most frequently, a linear or progressive unfolding of character takes place. emotions through monologues one by one.

Visual images That the lowest boughs and the brush-wood sheaf
Pentameter Round the elm-tree bole are in tiny leaf,

While the chaffinch sings on the orchard bough D Auditive image Trimeter In England—now! D The metrical pattern and the rhyme scheme give it a sort of rising and falling sense that mirrors the emotional rise and fall of the poem's central theme:the burst of joy at thinking of home,then the resignation that home lies so far away.
The poet missed his home, but we feel nothing sad in the poem.
So this is a kind of contract. It reveals his strong homesick by describing his beautiful scenery of home.
那金凤花，孩子们的嫁妆，
——比这俗丽的甜瓜更为灿烂明亮！

呵，但愿此刻置身于英格兰 正当这阳春四月。 不论谁在那里，一觉醒来 无意间总会看到，清晨， 那低矮的枝丫和茂密的灌木丛 在榆树周围已是一片郁郁葱葱， 燕雀在果园的枝头啁啾， 在英格兰哟—就在这个时候。 四月逝去，五月循踪而至， 灰雀筑巢，还有普天下的燕子！ 围篱旁我那一树梨花 伸向田野，一地三叶草 撒满花瓣和露珠—听，在虬枝末梢— 那机灵的画眉，每支歌都高唱两道， 生怕你以为他永远不会重现 初唱时那份无忧无虑的惊喜。 尽管白露使田野显得凄怆， 正午的太阳将使一切重现光芒。

Theme
The poet described the detailed images one by one, and each
gives us a very positive view. So we can see that the natural scenery of England was branded deeply in his heart. That absolutely showed his love for his home.
