#Twicknam_Garden

#John_Donne

Summary

The speaker of the #poem is broken-hearted. He goes into a garden to be soothed, to receive a cure for his broken #heart. But that is not to be so; because he also gets his worries and his love into the garden too and they won’t allow him to heal.

The garden which was originally full of glory was now ‘benighted’ by the ‘winter’; meaning that his broken heart made the #garden look like a #sinister place. He felt as if the trees were laughing and mocking him. He wants to be some senseless piece of the garden so that he can escape from this vicious cycle.

The #speaker says that the tears that does not taste like his’s are all false. The speaker laments the inability to see a woman’s heart clearly. Because of this, he says only the #woman knows the #truth and her truth causes a lot of pain to her #lover.

Mother’s gloom was long As the night, and at school Day after tasteless day Under the austere miniature Of the crucifixion I went through lesions and exercises, Sombre as any penitent monk. Watching friends at play, At thei...
