Romantic Poem Reflection

Of the poems we studied this week my favorite was The Tide Rises The Tide Falls.  I thought it was an interesting reflection of nature and enjoyed reading it.  What makes it romantic is it plays on the readers senses with the footprints in the sand, and the connection to nature which is the scene of the footprints laying in the sand being washed away by the rising tide.  I liked being able to visualize the tide coming in because it is peaceful and it made it good to read.
