Question

In her poem “In a Queen’s Domain,” what does Piatt seem to be inferring about the world in these lines"

Answer 1

Answer:

In her poem, "In a Queen's Domain", Piatt seems to be inferring that the world is not always perfect.

“And my subject, the dove, coos on, / Though my hand creep close to her nest.” tries to show that the world is made up of both the good and the bad people. The dove signifies the people that have a pure heart even though they are surrounded by people that seek to hurt them. The hand creeping close to the nest signifies the people that try to take advantage of the pure heart of the doves.

Piatt is depicted as imperfect and human because she conveys her realist views about nature and society. She does not seem interested in adhering to the romanticization of nature and women.
