Show transcript
Arguably, Dove tells a series of stories in the poem that all illustrate her love for her husband.
Dove uses humour to avoid this becoming a cliched poem about love.
Dove portrays her relationship as mundane, but secure and safe.
A person’s interpretation of a poem is unique to them; as long as it can be supported with evidence, it is valid.
It can be useful to consider multiple interpretations of a poem to enhance your understanding of it.
