How good it would be to be lost again Night falling on the compass, and the map

Turning to improbable flames

Bright ashes going out in the ponds.

And how good it would be

to stand bewildered in a strange wood

Where you are the loudest thing

Your heart making a deafening noise.

And how strange when your fear of being lost has subsided

To stand listening to the frogs holding

Their arguments in the stream

Condemning the barbarous herons.

And how right it is

To shrug off real and invented grief

As of no importance

To this moment of your life,

When being lost seems

So much more like being found

And you find all that is lost

Is what weighed you down. whats the main idea and analysis this poem?​

The poem was heart warming but your point is that you feel to be lost but don't want to be lost but rather live like you were lost

happy new year to yo!

the purpose of the heading in the passage is to identify who is telling the story.

this excerpt is part of the book sugar changed the world (2010) written by marc aronson and marina budhos. as the book has been written by two people, the heading "marc" indicates that this specific excerpt is being narrated by aronson. in the fragment, marc describes his grandfather's story after hearing it from his cousin. however, there are other excerpts where budhos is the one that tells the story of her family.

aronson and budhos, who are husband and wife in real life, decided to write sugar changed the world when they found out how sugar, which had an important role in slavery and economy, changed their ancestors' lives.
