critique on “Ballad of a Mother’s Heart”
This poem makes me really emotional when I was reading it. It had made me realize that moms are important, and that love can be so cruel, sometimes but more likely at most of the time; – love can make us do things that we do not intend doing. But, I actually kinda’ dislike the lad for making decisions easily without thinking the consequences; – despite that I like him for being persistent and his determination.
On contrary, the maiden seems to have her point to point out that the young lad needs his mother’s love. I think, thar she didn’t litteraty mean that she wants his mother’s heart.
As for this poem, I’ll give it a 10 because I feel the strong emotions in this poem, I felt pain in reading this ballad, it not only gave me the importance of having a mom, but it made me realize that love can make us do things that we are never intended to do in the first place.
