Kubla Khan

Inside Kubla Khan, I could perceive a description of external natural and how all natural elements affect human affections throughout the poem for example: “The sacred river, ran through caverns measureless to man Down to a sunless sea". This poem shows us how natural can inspire people to think and create a lot of things in order to represent in words or in pictures their thoughts and feelings.

According to what kind of feelings a poem can produce in readers, when I read Kubla Khan I could imagine all things that the author describes because he presents a world like a parades where everything was made by God’s hands “and close your eyes with holy dread, for he on honey-dew hath fed, and drunk the milk of paradise”. Also, it was a moment when I read a verse where the author says “by woman wailing for her demon-lover!” I was able to feel and reproduce this image in my mind, and I felt so sad and depress because it is a cruel figure of woman who is falling in love with someone who is not a good person at all.

In conclusion, it is incredible how a poem produces in readers a lot of different kind of feelings like: happiness, sadness, annoyance, etc; at the same time. However, poems are also a good way to show and represent the authors’ point of views about how they see and perceive the world and all things that happened inside it during their life.
