REMEMBER 1. a theme is a controlling idea or a central insight about life 2. a theme must be one complete sentence 3. a theme is general and needn't reference anything specific in the story or poem 4. a theme must take into account totality of a work 5. must not be cliché
The World Is Too Much With Us BY WILLIAM WORDSWORTH The world is too much with us; late and soon, Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers; Little we see in Nature that is ours; We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon! This Sea that bares her bosom to the moon; The winds that will be howling at all hours, And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers; For this, for everything, we are out of tune; It moves us not. Great God! Id rather be A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn; So might I, standing on this pleasant lea, Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn; Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea; Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.
ok
so it is saying how us humans do not take advantage of our selves or everything that we can do.
so what do you think the theme ?
is the theme sorry
