Why does Housman compare life to the blossoming of a cherry tree?

Paul [167]3 years ago

Housman compares life to the blossoming of a cherry tree because a person's life is much like a cherry tree.

A cherry tree blossoms like a young person. However, the blossoms do not last forever, much like life. Therefore, we have to enjoy the blossoms -- and our lives -- while we can. 

He says that if you only enjoy the cherry tree when it blossoms (in the spring) then you will not get a lot of time to enjoy it. That's why at the end of the poem he goes "to see the cherry hung with snow." He will enjoy the cherry tree all year round, instead of just once a year.

In the same way, we have to enjoy life all the time, not just some of the time.

What best describes the relationship between the Boston Marathon bombing and biometrics?
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Because of the newly developed biometric technology, the FBI was able to

quickly identify two suspects.

The blurry photos released by the FBI after the bombing prompted

researchers to improve their early biometric software.

Because biometric technology was unavailable at the time, the Boston

Marathon bomber remains at large.

The Boston Marathon bombing made researchers aware of how biometric

technology is sometimes useless and ineffective.
