Which two words enhance the setting in this poem? War by Ellen Glasgow Ripples of ribbons borne on high, Bloodstains upon a braz
en sky; From cannon belching on the plain, Fire that by fire is fought again. A flash where steel by steel is met; A fume of smoke and blood and sweat. Sharp from the smeared and trodden gorse The death-cry of a wounded horse. Dust of a plain ground into red By armies of majestic dead. Gaunt shadows on the changeless sky, A flock of vultures swarming nigh. Mid ashes where a hearth has stood, Children that cry aloud for food. Where green the peaceful highways run, A woman ravished in the sun. And far across the reeking sod A Nation sounding thanks to God.
Being successful is about learning from the mistakes you have made, hence not making it again as you have learnt your lesson and in keeping with that make better decisions next time.
