Last night I was reading to my seven year old son, Archer from 'The Family Book Of Best-Loved Poems', which is the same poetry book that my parents read to me when I was little. It's literally the same book because I took their copy after I moved out.
Archer and I read a chapter of whatever book we're reading together every night before he goes to sleep (reality: before I kiss him goodnight, he waits 5 or 10 minutes and then he turns on his night light and starts reading his books, hoping I won't catch him. He hides the books under his pillow as he falls asleep, but he's bad at cleaning up the evidence, so I find his stash the next night when I put him to bed.), and sometimes I add a couple of poems.
So, I opened the poetry book and he said, "Does it have your favorite poem in it?"
"The Wreck of the Hesperus? Yes, it does."
"No, that symmetry poem."
"Symmetry? Let me see. No, I don't think it does." I have, at this point, looked up 'Symmetry' as a title, found nothing, and then turned to page 279 to read him the poem I was originally going to read.
"You know," he says, "what immortal hand or eye dare frame thy fearful symmetry - THAT poem."
"Oh," said I. "It does. In fact, here it is." I showed him the poem that I had selected to read for him, which was this poem:
The Tyger
Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare sieze the fire?
And what shoulder, & what art.
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand? & what dread feet?
What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
When the stars threw down their spears,
And watered heaven with their tears,
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry? --William Blake
I have always loved the powerful imagery of the forge in this poem, and the questioning of the creator. Both concepts are already strongly featured in our world of Mechadia. Until last night, I hadn't realized how much this poem is part of my psyche, though apparently Archer already knew.
So cute! I already like you on FB and also get your posts on Google Reader. :)
