Answer:

Explanation:

Here are the annotations about the poem:

1. It's a poem published in 1923 by <em>William Carlos Williams</em>. He wanted a new kind of poetry based on everyday speech free from any metrical structures.

2. This <em>poem </em>is a free verse poem of 8 stanzas. There's no rhyme pattern.

3. We can find <em>two moods</em>: a somber and lighless scenery in winter followed by a tone of hope and growth with the arrival of the coming spring.

4. <em>First mood</em>: this is first set with the appearance of a hospital, a place linked to disease and death. The word "contagious" deepens this idea. The desolate scene is found in the description of the place: a cold wind,  standing and fallen dried weeds, muddy fields, water standing still because it seems it hasn't been absorbed, brown leaves in just a few trees. These images convey the idea that nothing lives or moves.

5. <em>Second mood</em>: the fourth stanza marks a turn in the tone. Spring slowly makes its way. There's hope and growth. Roots begin to awaken, grass will be filled with wildcarrot leaves. It seems plants will no longer be dead.

6. The poet wants to describe a real world with vivid <em>vibrant images.</em>  He mentions the clouds: "under the surge of the blue/mottled clouds driven from the/northeast-a cold wind." They enter the scene with force. It seems they don't float but are driven by a cold wind. I can vividly imagine the clouds coming and deepening the gloomy atmosphere of winter.

7. There's <em>no end stops</em> during the poem. It's made up of a flow of ideas free of any pause. It's as if the speaker is in a car or standing up in the road and he puts into words what he sees, what sorrounds him.

8. Following the previous line of thought, notice there's <em>no end point at the</em> <em>end of the poem.</em>  It's as if the poem goes on. He describes the beginning of spring, the first clues. He wants us to continue imagine what will happen next, how nature will bloom, how life will come back.

Can you ever be too ambitious?<br> yes or no? explain why or why not
Phoenix [80]
Webster's dictionary defines ambition as: "<span>a strong desire to do or to achieve something, typically requiring determination and hard work." with that being said, there is not necessarily any way to have too much ambition. the most important though, it to have a purpose. Billy Sunday, a preacher from a time passed, once said, "More men fail through lack of purpose than lack of talent." he is saying that anyone can do anything, given that they put their mind to it. Philippians 4:13 states: "For i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."</span>
