one of the best. i have read his poems, essays, and short stories and find
that they all have a deaper meaning, and a point. he talks to you in ways
most american writers or thinkers can't, i dont like poets that use too
many words and say too little, (i.e robert frost) langston is able to say
so much with so little words and that is what i truly admire about him

This is one of my favorite poems! I love poetry and if I was more
thoughtful I would write. I had to do a report on Langston Hughes and read
on of his poems out loud to the class I decided since it was short and
beautiful this one would be perfect!!!

I think this poem is very beautiful and delicate. The title is quiet girl,
she is quiet as a dark night but her eyes are like stars. she is quiet as a
deep sleep but her songs are like dreams.

Hughes was interested in setting other criterian for beauty. Instead of
likening beautiful girls to moons and stars, He likened his girl to a black
queit night. its stars hided themselves when the girl's eyes showed up. And
so did the dreams, when her songs played.
All that ha happened in just six verses.

this one's a nice poem. Langston can put so much thought in a few words.
and that is something to be desired in a poet. whereas some poems confuse,
Langston's are simple and filled with thoughts of the simplicities of life
without having to exaggerate them so that the essence is altogether lost.

i thought the poem was very well done and i think it is rude for people to
say that langston's poems sux and make rude comments about his poetry. And
it would be more helpful for those people lokking for hepl when writting
essay's and reports if others told why they thought the poem was good and
alittle bit of there understanding about the poem....
my understandig is that girl is very shy and wouldnt have been noticed if
it wasnt for her eyes, because they were so beautiful and her here songs
are like a dream.
