About Russia her pain
Each person has his own understanding of the Motherland. It is, of course, connected with the places where the person was born and grew up. For the poetess, Russia is a country of birches, blue sky, bell ringing. A country where simple, slightly naive, smart and great people live. In the poem "My Russia" the poetess characterizes her Motherland and her soul with great love.
Many poets ask themselves why we love our Motherland so much. What is the reason? In the poem "My Motherland" the poetess confesses her love for the Motherland. She speaks on behalf of the Russians. Using adjectives in a comparative degree - "tastier", "prettier", "grander", she answers this question. Thanks to the Motherland, expressed by the word “thank you”, is heard several times. The lyrical heroine cannot live in other countries, she only "runs in" there.
A painful topic for Russia, revealed in the poem "Rus" - the extinction of the village - remains a problem to this day. The poetess could not help but respond to her. Her heart also hurts about rural Russia. It hurts that city life attracts people with life "light". It hurts because Russia is poor.
I would be in my childhood again
There is probably no such person who would not want to return to childhood. So the heroine Sergeeva in the poem "In Childhood" also lives with memories of him. What was so dear to her? Parents in love with each other, faithful friends, good films, pleasant walks. The most important thing - then everything was simple and natural, there are no burdens of life, she is happy. Memories of childhood happiness is the great joy of an adult.
The question voiced in the title of the poem "Where are our school years …" worries everyone who was a schoolboy. This is a traditional theme of a person's sadness about the past school years. There are many different associations in the life of people of the age with the present time, but, probably, the most touching memory is nevertheless connected with the school time.
"Once upon a time there were young …" The phrase from the poem of the same name, it would seem, is banal. But such a close and dear one, because youth is another time in a person's life, about which he does not forget and wants to return there. We believed in our strength, sincerely loved, lived with a dream, visited many places - this is how we were in our youth. The author does not consider old age to be a disaster. After all, you can still rejoice at every minute, because the strength has not yet been lost.
It's impossible not to create about love
In the poem "Not with me" a woman says goodbye to her beloved. She decided so, and there is no return to the past. She will calmly say that they must part. The lyrical heroine understands that her beloved will be hurt, hurt just as she was hurt when she found out about the reason for the changes in their relationship. A woman wants a man to be happy, but not with her.
The main character of the poem "I can't breathe without you" is a man. This is his confession. The separation is unbearable for him. He understood what love is and how he had to deny himself in order to preserve this feeling. What happened to him, and his current state, he will not wish even to the enemy. The only dream he now lives is that the woman will return. The man asks to believe him.
What is this medicine that cures any disease? The intrigue of this question persists throughout the entire poem "A cure for any disease." As long as the poet characterizes this medicine, it is reliable. The second hint is that this medicine is in the person. A final hint: this medicine is the path to health and happiness. And the final chord of the poem is amazing. The poet believes that LOVE is the most important medicine in life.
All people think about happiness
They dream of happiness … They talk about happiness … They sing about happiness. They write about happiness. They want happiness - big, big. The lyrical heroine of the poem "Happiness" is already happy: she just walks along the coast, sees a small forest. The sun is shining and the air is fresh. Around it is wonderful! The soul is pleasant. She dreams, pondering her future plans. Isn't that what happiness is? Now all this is to see and feel good.
Parents and children … What happens to them? No poet will leave aside the answer to this question. So the poetess in the poem "Football on the Beach" describes a picture from the life of a family. Childhood happiness … The boy is happy that he defeated his dad while playing football. The father is full of hope that everything will be fine with his son. The parent was able to create a victory situation for his son, so that the boy felt like a winner. As an adult, the son will certainly remember how he tried and was able to win.
