Read the poem “to one in paradise,” by edgar allan poe. thou wast all that to me, love, for which my soul did pine- a green isle in the sea, love, a fountain and a shrine, all wreathed with fairy fruits and flowers, and all the flowers were mine. ah, dream too bright to last! ah, starry hope! that didst arise but to be overcast! a voice from out the future cries, “on! on! ”- but o'er the past (dim gulf! ) my spirit hovering lies mute, motionless, aghast! for, alas! alas! me for me the light of life is over! “no more- no more- no more- ” (such language holds the solemn sea to the sands upon the shore) shall bloom the thunder-blasted tree or the stricken eagle soar! and all my days are trances, and all my nightly dreams are where thy grey eye glances, and where thy footstep gleams- in what ethereal dances, by what eternal streams. what theme of the poem does the third stanza reveal? there are losses from which people do not fully recover. after death, people can no longer witness nature. when loved ones die, people must rely on memories. the natural world is strong and resilient.
