In the poem from Dylan Thomas, ''Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night,'' he is convincing and telling his father to fight away death. In the poem, Dylan wrote, ''dying of the light,'' quoting that he is referring to death. To accompany the situation and description of death he writes, ''Do not go gentle into that goof night.'' Throughout the poem Thomas is convincing the readers to deny death and fight it. The writer uses imagery to paint a vivid picture inside the readers head. 
''The Charge Of The Light Brigade'' is a poem by Lord Tennyson, that tells a story to the readers. The story is abut how the Light brigade went to war. The writer uses terrifying description of the war and how the men died: <span> “Shattered and sundered. They rode back, but not, not the six hundred.” When reading the poem you receive a sense of anxiousness as the poem goes on to describe the war. 
The Dylan Thomas poem says you should fight death, but Lord Tennyson's poem says you should somewhat accept it.

He uses imagery to paint a picture in the reader’s head. <span>

Tennis, one of the oldest of the modern sports, goes back as far as the 1500s, though the true modern game of "lawn tennis" goes back to the 1870s.
