Saturday Snapshot-Chichen Itza

Hey guys- today I'm starting a new mini-series, and I'm using Saturday Snapshot* as my forum. I know that my last mini-series was only two posts, so I'm hoping to share some more with you this time! Once again, all credits go to my dad for these pictures.

*Saturday Snapshot is a meme hosted by westmetromommyreads.com

This time, I'll be sharing pictures of my trip to Chiapas in Mexico, home to the World Wonder, The Chichen Itza Ruins.

  2. So amazing! I've been to the cliff dwellings at Mesa Verde in Colorado (U.S.) and was blown away by the ancient structures. I'm looking forward to more photos in your Chichén Itzá series.

The Hero, by Rabindranath Tagore

 The narrative poem" The Hero" was written by Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore. Set in a young boy's imaginations this narrative has all the necessary elements and is rich in imagery. The characters, plot, setting, theme, climax and idea are all very clearly outlined.  The setting of the poem falls within the boy's imagination. It is described to have 'spiky grass' and a 'narrow broken path'. It is also mentioned that the country is 'strange and dangerous'. The rurality of the setting is further accentuated when Tagore talks of the 'cattle' and 'wide fields'.

One by Shawnee Kellie

  The poem "One" by Shawnee Kellie is a very interesting and thought-provoking piece of writing. The poem spreads the message that it is not only a large group of people that can make a change, but one idea, one thought, one human that can help make the world a better place. 

Coromandel Fishers by Sarojini Naidu

Hello! For this post I will be exploring another poem written by Sarojini Naidu, called "Coromandel Fishers". This poem can be taken as an allegory, for although it speaks to fishermen, it's metaphoric value speaks to the nation, and can be considered a wakening call for the people of our country. When I wrote about "In the Bazaars of Hyderabad", I mentioned that Sarojini Naidu was one of our freedom fighters, and believed greatly in the Swadeshi movement. Naidu reflects her passion for India in this poem.
