Symbol

Definition: Symbol is what something has a meaning but it represent for something else

Example:  “A Red, Red Rose” by Robert Burns, 1869

O, my luve’s like a red, red rose

That's newly sprung in June

O, my luve’s like the melodie

That's sweetly play’d in tune

As fair art thou, my bonie lass

So deep in luve am I

And I will luve thee still, my Dear

Till a' the seas gang dry

Till a' the seas gang dry, my Dear

And the rocks melt wi’ the sun!

O I will luve thee still, my Dear

While the sands o' life shall run

And fare the weel, my only love!

And fare the well awhile!

And I will come again, my love.

Tho it were ten thousand mile!

Significant:  By using symbol in poem, then we will not symbolized something directly but also make the reader think and guess what did the poet symbol. It will make the poem more excited to each part
