Wild Peaches by Elinor Wylie
The line “We’ll swim in milk and
honey till we drown” depicts an abundance of supply of food or about prosperity
in general. On the other hand, the line “The spring begins before the winter’s
over” suggests an ideal weather where winter is short-lived and fair weather is
always enjoyed. Finally, the line “We shall live well — we shall live very well”
promises a good and comfortable life. Thus, readers expect that life at the
Eastern Shore is everybody’s dream life: complete, perfect and ideal.
