If you're talking about the poem by Edith M. Thomas then I believe that the central idea is about how people can base something off of their looks. I'm not completely sure, but it talks a lot about how they look dead, but then explain that they are not. To me that makes it sound a lot like the saying "don't judge a book by its cover".

It could also mean that things take time to grow into something beautiful, and before that happens, you have to go through something difficult, seeming as if it is the end of the world. But then you blossom and bloom and everybody will look in awe.

I'm not completely sure these are right, and I'm not sure we read the same poem, but you didn't state the author's name. This was just off the top of my head but I hope it helps you or gives you an idea :)

Duty, in a way, contributed to the shallowness and failure of Ivan's life. Not because duty in itself is bad, but because it has become Ivan's only preoccupation, apart from pleasant life. Tolstoy's negative view of duty is seen in the second half of this sentence: "he considered his duty all things that were so designated by people in authority". So, we are talking about duty as Ivan sees it, and Ivan sees it as it was designated by people in authority. That means, Ivan structures his life and his priorities according to the view of those above him. His only ambition is to try and climb the social ladder. When he fails to do it, he is disappointed and has to find another obsession - of course, materialistic one. And that is the decoration of his new house. That's when he falls down and injures himself - so, indirectly, his materialism has cost him his health and, ultimately, his life.
