I need a little insight and context on this question. From my memory of the book, the ghost serves the purpose of reminding Hamlet of his immediate task to kill Claudius and to avenge his death. What do you guys think?

I can't remember a certain children's book-it basically chronicals a baby growing into a man, and his mother's love for him-even rushing to his house late at night to rock him to sleep, long after he's grown. He then has his own child. The message is repetitive, something like "you'll never know how much I love you." Something to that effect. It's a great book, very sentimental in nature.

I am ten years old and this is part of my second book. It takes place in the 1800s. It's a survival book. I've done lots of research.

I know that the rhyme scheme is AABB, but what is the METER (is it iambic/ anapest/ dactyl/ etc..)? And the no. of feet?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poetry_analysis#Meter_and_rhyme

Does the meter have to be the same in each line? Sometimes I find a certain pattern in one line, but am not sure it is similarly reflected in other lines.

I've written such a series with faint similarities as Harry's regarding magic, but very different story line. My family and friends have all given high reviews and can't wait to read my second in series. So my question is, should I wait or should I seek to find publication now? I know it could take a long time to get published.

What did you think of it? I've been reading it and it's sooo long and convoluted. I do like fantasy novels and I do like the basic story-line but I can't understand why this is an international best-seller - opinions?!!

When Hemingway wrote this of Wyndham Lewis in 1960, was it a foreshadowing of his mental problems? Would he have written this in 1927? When did Hemingway become mentally ill?

Piano -- by D.H. Lawrence

Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me;
Taking me back down the vista of years, till I see
A child sitting under the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
And pressing the small, poised feet of a mother who smiles as she sings.

In spite of myself, the insidious mastery of song
Betrays me back, till the heart of me weeps to belong
To the old Sunday evenings at home, with winter outside
And hymns in the cosy parlour, the tinkling piano our guide.

So now it is vain for the singer to burst into clamour
With the great black piano appassionato. The glamour
Of childish days is upon me, my manhood is cast
Down in the flood of remembrance, I weep like a child for the past.
--------------------------------------------------------

What themes does it revolve around? Other than childhood, comparing the happiness of childhood to the darkness of adulthood, and nostalgia with memories for the poet's childhood.
