Compare two poems showing how the poets reveal their ideas and feelings about the particular cultures and traditions that they are writing about.
The two poets I decided to compare are Search For My Tongue by Suyata Bhatt and Hurricane Hits England by Grace Nichols.
The ideas about culture in Search For My Tongue, is that the poet feels that she losing a big part of her culture, her language. We see this in line 2 she says ''I have lost my tongue'' The words she uses to express her feelings are quite dramatic in that saying she has lost her tongue, makes the reader feel that has misplaced her tongue and it cannot be found. In Hurricane Hits England the poet says 'I have lost my mother tongue'. In Hurricane Hits England the poet says 'my sweeping back home cousin' the unusual weather in Britain makes the poet feel like she is back in the Caribbean.
