Compare and Contrast ‘You’re’ and ‘To Edwin at Eight Months
The first similarity which I came across between the two poems was both of the poems have been written about young and very young children. Also I found that both of the poems are descriptive of the child and its actions. One contrast between the poem ‘You’re and ‘To Edwin….’ Is that ‘You’re’ has been based around an unborn child where as in the other poem it has been written about a child already of eight months old. This shows that both the poems have been written from different perspectives.
