potete commentarmi questa poesia in inglese x favore?

Question

EMPTY HOUSE

Then,when the child was gone,
I was alone
In the house, suddenly grown vast.Each noise
Explained its orign away
Animal , vegetable , mineral ,
Nail,creaking board, or little mouse.
But mostly there was quiet of after a battle
Round the room where lay
The soldiers and the paint-box , all the toys.
Then, when I went to tidy these away,
My hands refused to serve:
My body was this house,
Each plaything that he’d touched, an exposed nerve.

La poesia è questa...se potete dirmi qualcosa tipo la vostra interpretazione che sensazioni comunica o com'è la struttura e la metrica della poesia vi sarei molto grato!
è x un compito di inglese...se riuscite a dirmelo in inglese è meglio..
grazie a tutti!

Answer 1

This poem can make us understand what a mother or a father feels when her/his child dies.
All the toys around the house are standing still, without little hands playing with them. When the author says "animal vegetable mineral" he refers to the guessing game he used to play with his/her child. Probably the quiet after a battle is the silence in the house after the baby's death, but the battle can also be the fight this child had against an illness, for instance.

Spero possa esserti utile, dai un'occhiata anche alla mia grammatica, la mattina tendo ad essere troppo assonnata per scrivere decentemente

ciao

Se io capissi una sola parola di inglese lo potrei fare, ma purtroppo sta lingua non la mastico.

Answer 3

I feel a lonely sensation when I read this poem...it makes you feel the pain of being alone, all the noises. it gives a sensory imagery of what he is feeling.
