Question

what shared topic can be found in the compared text? to my dear and loving husband and love song, with two goldfish

Answer 1

Answer:

C. An exploration of how love changes over time.

Explanation:

In the poem "To My Dear and Loving Husband", the poet Anne Bradstreet talks about the love she has for her husband. She delves into the long-lasting and deep feeling she has with her husband. And she wished that their love stays the same forever, "that when we live no more we may live ever".

On the other hand, Grace Chua's poem "Love Song, With Two Goldfish" reveals the short love of the two fishes. The female fish is not happy with her partner, who is unable to give "a life beyond the (bowl)". Though she may have been in love with him before, but now, her love has gone "belly-up".

These two poems deals with the same theme of the exploration of how love changes over a period of time.
