The+Valley+of+Unrest


 * INTERPRETATION: **

=
This poem also seems to be about war. The valley used to be a quiet, peaceful haven. However, when the men went off as soldiers to war, the valley was disrupted. Each day more and more deaths arose. Some soldiers who were unidentified could be represented by "the nameless grave." Now in the valley, everything-- even the lilies and violets-- will cry for the love ones lost at war. The movements of the trees and clouds could be caused by military activities. This poem might be about the sadness and grief felt during times of war at the home front. =====
