Show transcript
Hood's poetry reflects some Romantic ideals - nature and the innocence of childhood. Hood's poetry also reflects the more realist ideas of Victorian poetry. Hood's adult life was plagued with illness, perhaps why he is so wistful for his childhood. Hood's poem is nostalgic, remembering his happy times as a child. There is also a mournful tone to Hood's poetry; he is melancholic that he will not feel that joy again.
