Overall comparisonWhile the perspectives are different- and in Armitage's case, unclear- the tone of acceptance and the acknowledgement that familial separation is painful for the parent is consistent throughout both poems. Lewis' poem focuses on the parental pain more, but both carry the ultimate message that they have to let the child go. The rhyme schemes and structure are different to convey different ideas about family ties and growing up. |
