Essay 1 Introduction:
Ed Madden depicts a conversation through the use of metaphors in his poem Hidden Things. He relates human goodness and natural optimism to the blooming and thriving of plantlife and flowers. This poem argues that it is human nature to want to see something that is good in something that has perished, even if it takes a little help from others along the way, by using the metaphors of nature and flowers. In the sixth stanza, a sadness is introduced by the purple seeds and bulbs not appearing again. However, the optimism is shown by the reader wanting to be reminding that the "ground is rich with history," which represents the full and happy life he has lived.
