The poem’s main themes center on death and nature. Bryant does not view death as a cause for concern. Instead, it shows a necessary and normal aspect of existence for humans. Everyone who enters this world will ultimately accept death, regardless of their ethnicity, age, skin tone, or religious beliefs. The poet exhorts the audience to not view death as a terrifying, eerie, or depressing occurrence by going on to explain that it will not separate them from other people in the hereafter. Everybody who passes away will be reunited with the deceased.
