Saturday Snapshot- Milan

Some of you may remember that in last week's Saturday Snapshot post I mentioned that I'd be sharing some more pictures of our family trip to Italy in 2012. I began the series knowing that there were some pictures that I'd probably never find. Luckily- last month, I found those pictures! Today I'll be sharing some pictures of our brief trip to Milan.

(You can check out the rest of my series here.)

    I enjoyed your beautiful photos of Milan. So glad you found them! The cathedral is magnificent, and the walkway along the water looks so inviting. I'd love to go there.
    My Saturday Snapshot post features waterfalls.

      It can be hard sometimes living out of your home country and not seeing it- I hope you get to visit very soon!

    Milan! Wow, you have traveled to so many amazing places! I love your photos - especially the one of the harbor with the dark clouds. Very dramatic.

    Hope you are having a good week!

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.
