'light', 'sun' and 'daylight' are positive connotations for nature: they describe nature as bright and happy. The fact that mankind tries to take that away as maps, buildings and receipts, but nature still 'shines through' them, suggests that no matter how hard man tries to gain power over nature, nature will always be bright and flow through man-made things as if it's not even there. Could link to 'transparent', how nature can easily overpower man. This is just off of the top of my head xd
I've got my mock exams in 2 weeks, and your videos never fail to help. Thank you so much, Mr Bruff, I salute you.

@@Xavier-gr7hz your not alone bro 😂
@@Xavier-gr7hzswr
@@Xavier-gr7hzbro we are finished if this comes. What exam board are you man
I am officially cooked
I’ll cry if this comes tomorrow
same it's a beautiful poem but i just would rather not 😜
Been struggling with this poem for so long! Finally understand it now, thank you! 😁
same
finally understand the poem, find it the hardest of the lot, just a overcomplicated extended metaphor. edit: thanks for the video, they're always great, concise and really get all the important bits linked together, and your revision guides are too!
Might be useful but tissue or paper can also be demostrated as how people take life for granted. We throw away tissues and it can be so easy to lose your life so easily and thrown away by death
Im not really sure how to word it, so sorry
I get the idea really nice,why do you want to increase the grade boundaries keep that judicious idea to yourself that's some grade 7-9 Material
Good luck
Paper that lets the light shine through, this is what could alter things. Paper thinned by age or touching, the kind you find in well-used books, the back of the Koran, where a hand has written in the names and histories, who was born to whom, the height and weight, who died where and how, on which sepia date, pages smoothed and stroked and turned transparent with attention. If buildings were paper, I might feel their drift, see how easily they fall away on a sigh, a shift in the direction of the wind. Maps too. The sun shines through their borderlines, the marks that rivers make, roads, railtracks, mountainfolds, Fine slips from grocery shops that say how much was sold and what was paid by credit card might fly our lives like paper kites. An architect could use all this, place layer over layer, luminous script over numbers over line, and never wish to build again with brick or block, but let the daylight break through capitals and monoliths, through the shapes that pride can make, find a way to trace a grand design with living tissue, raise a structure never meant to last, of paper smoothed and stroked and thinned to be transparent, turned into your skin.
Omd this better not come up
Better not come up tommorow 😂
@@RiptideGaming_0fficial i rather this come up than kamikaze or poppies
@@DaGrizzlyBearnahh tissue is the worst
hardest poem by far. Watching this like 5 times
thankyou gaming dream
cramming before the exam, ur a saviour mr bruff ❤
my teacher said it’s very unlikely that we will have tissue printed and i really hope she’s right 😭
Same
same, i hope it is something like kamikaze or remains
@@hendy2602 more likely to be kamikaze as remains was used a couple years ago and i dont think they will repeat it so soon
@@matildalouise4123 what did you think about it being bayonet charge
@@hendy2602 i hated it, i barely wrote anything. i barely did the comparison and only wrote about 2 paragraphs. how did you find it?
Hi Mr Bruff. Could I talk about or analyse the idea that sunlight (light shines through) and wind (fly our lives like paper kites) suggests that nature has an unknown power that is more important than man's fragile power? Thanks!
Absolutely!
