In this essay I am comparing the two poems "half past two" and "Hide and Seek" these two poems are written by modern poets. Which are Vernon Scannel and U. A. Fanthorpe, we see in Scannel's poem that he is describing his sinter child hood where his best friend's leave him during a game of hide and seek. For the reason we do not know. We can see this in the title which make out first thoughts be ones of our child hoods and playing game in the garden, where as in half past two we relate to the poem by making us, the reader, think of all that we were missing out when we had to stay behind after school for detentions. In the first stanza of hide and seek, we see a child that has played the game of, hide and seek, before we see this in the way the poet calls out "I'm ready! Come and find me!" this shows us that the child has played this before by the use of the explication to create two short sentences for emphasis and that he very confident in what he is doing.
