"St. David's Day Silver" written by Gillian Clark in 1975 is a personal record of the experience of the author who visited a mental hospital. At the beginning of the poem, there is peaceful peace of mind, like the village and country house described by Gillian Clark. However, this poem leads directly to raw cruel reality from this calm nature. "I am reading poetry crazy." Jillian Clarke is in a mental hospital and is reading poetry as a patient treatment. With present and the first person, Clark put himself under the poet 's background.
A comparison of the miracle of the day of St. David by Gillian Clarke and Dafodil in William Wordsworth's "Da Vodir" was written by William Wordsworth about a century ago. The miracle was written by Gillian Clark. Therefore, the style and language of poetry are very different. At first glance, it is clear that there is a contrast in the content, but at a deeper level the relationship between them is obvious. In this article I will explain the connection and the difference between two poems.
Gilian Clark who is a Welshman may have a big influence on the theme of her poetry. The example is basically a miracle of the title of the day of St. David. If Gillian Clark is an Englishman, I will not write poetry called Miracle on the day of St. David, so I think this title is very important. In addition, Clark's Welshman may influence the theme of her poetry, because at East Moors she talks about how the steel mill is closed and how it affects the community It was. For example, it is obvious that the unemployment rate will be high, Clark said, "Sleepiness settles in the front room and my wife does little work for men." After the community's largest employer is closed and women prepare for men, boredom is clearly a big problem. If Gillian Clark is not a Welsh man, she will not write this sort of poem.
Gillian Clarke as a woman may influence the theme of poetry. A letter from a distant country, Gillian Clarke definitely used the idea of a woman to understand her perspective. She told me basically that women are doing wonderful jobs in her poetry, but they do not necessarily appreciate my man because men do not think these tasks are wonderful. For example, Clarke clearly thinks that working at home is very important. "I moved to the hive all day, harvested and ordered." Clark clearly believes that she brought order to her family. This is an important job in her eyes and I am not always appreciated by men.
