In my GT class, I have been assigned the task f researching a famous poet, and I went in not realy knowing what I'd get. I googled famous poets and the first one I saw was Langston Hughes. I read a few of his works, and was absolutely amazed. I have never though so deeply about poetry in my life. And I have been analyzing his works, like this one, Ardella, my favorite of all. I have been able to relate a lot to this poem. It's metephorical meaning confounds me. Liken, meaning to compare, to a night without stars, and liken to a sleep without dreams. If you go deep enough past the surface, you can realy come out with a lot of this poem.

This comment is for Christian---excuse me but I don't think you have the right to call this poem retarded, maybe you just can't comprehend the peom or read between the lines...but don't go calling people or work people have done retarded, it's rude and disrespectful...If you think you can do a better job then go ahead.
