Answer:
I love summer! It’s the time where we can go to the pool or beach and be with our family, But I do have favorite parts!
One of my favorite parts is MY BIRTHDAY! It’s going to be great because I’ll be with my friends. My birthday is on June 20, 2013. I am going to have a pool party/slumber party. At the pool, we’re going to play lots of games like… Star. It’s where you think of a movie star, a book, or even a television show/movie. Then you start giving hints. The first one who figures it out the answer has to swim to the other side, tag their hand, and say out loud what that person might be thinking. After the pool party we will go to my house and watch movies and have snacks.
Another thing I’m doing this summer is going to Bethany Beach, DE. This will be my 2nd time going. Every year we go with my mom’s friend’s family. We go to the beach every day. When my mom’s friends and their kids go with my mom my sister and I to the beach we play soccer and crash into the huge waves. Some nights we go eat at our friend’s house in Bethany.
Once we’re done with Bethany, we’re heading to D.C., where my mom’s friend lives. I have been to D.C. one time but I was 2 so I can’t really remember anything. My mom has been there so many times this year and she told me so many things like there is this restaurant where the whole floor is made out of pennies because the restaurant is named after Abraham Lincoln. While we are in D.C. we’re going to see where Abraham was assassinated in the theater. We’re also going to see the Declaration of Independence written by Thomas Jefferson the 3rd president of the U.S. Another thing we’re going to see is the Constitution. After all that excitement we’re going home.
As you can see I am going to have a wonderful summer and I hope you have a good one too.

The words which are contrasted and compared are:

Explanation:
The poem speaks about self-discovery and breaking free from self-imposed limitations. The imagery used here typified a bird in a nest that decides to explore the vastness of the sky.

Answer:
The primary use of symbolism in this poem is the symbolism of the rivers. The speaker, who represents African Americans, connects his history, and thus the history of African Americans, to the eponymous rivers. This history, which the speaker also equates with the African American "soul," is "deep" and "ancient," like the rivers. Different rivers referenced in the poem have different, specific symbolic meanings. The Euphrates, for example, was a river running near to Mesopotamia, an area often considered to be the birthplace of civilization.
