what in the woman’s appearance does the speaker praise? what conclusions does he draw about her character and personality?
The one that seems to be pure, that in her eyes he can see a beautiful soul and a innocent mind. He thinks that a beautiful woman is the one that lives with serenity and tranquility, the one that with her expressions, like her smile and eyes, can express the truth of her heart. This type of woman expresses a mind full of peace and a heart full of love.
In conclusion, he says that a beautiful woman does not express the beauty in her physical characteristics, he says that the beauty is seen through the eyes and the expressions but it represents the incredible, peaceful and sweet characteristics that the heart and the mind have.
This poem has been criticized as sentimental and dependent on clichés. Tell me whether or not you agree and why.
This poem seems to be a cliché because it talks about the beauty of a woman and that everything is just in the right way when he is with her. He says that everything seems to be perfect, but in life nothing goes that way. The poem gives us a different perspective when he says that his eyes and smile represent the beauty that the woman have inside, in her mind, soul and heart, this makes me doubt in the idea that the poem is a total cliché.
Do you think that inward nature can be revealed by outward appearances? Explain.
Yes, the inward nature of a person can be expressed by the outward appearances. The eyes and the expressions of a person show many feelings and thoughts that a person has. The problem is that many other persons express a lot of feelings and thoughts that are not real; they demonstrate other things because they are afraid to show their reality. In conclusion, most of the people express their feelings and thoughts by their eyes and expressions; the problem is that sometimes those expressions are not accurate.
