    According to the poet, life is not just sweet dreams. It is full of hardships. Until a person does not face problems and troubles in his/her life, he will not be able to live it. When a child grows up, he faces challenges at every phase. He has to bear thirst and hunger, he has to face failures, he has to bear heart-breaks and so on. Hence the children should be ready to face the hardships of life and this will make them a mature human being.

    Following poetic/literary devices or figures of speech have been used in the poem Life:

    1. Metaphor: It is a literary device that is used to make a comparison between two things that aren’t alike but do have something in common. e.g. the poet compares life with a sweet dream and joy.
    2. Simile: It is a poetic device used to make comparison between two different things using “as” or “like”. e.g. “your hearts like billow”
    3. Personification: It is the attribution of human characteristics to animals and non-human things. e.g. “some resistless hour shall rise and move your heart”. 
    4. Symbolism: It is the use of symbols to represent things. e.g. “flames of amber and amethyst” symbolise struggles of life, “burn your brows with blood-red suffering” symbolise the pain which we bear when we grow up, “dream-shattering years” symbolise struggles of humans in their youth.
    5. Alliteration: it is the use of the same letter or sound at the beginning of words that are close together. e.g. “life is a lovely stalactite”, “carnival of careless joy”, “burn your brows with blood-red sufferings”, “great grief”, wounded with fierce desire and worn with strife”.
