Gary Snyder poems #2

In the "Coyote Valley Spring," on page sixteen, Snyder is capturing nature. The simplicities of nature just seem to amaze for no particular reason. They just enrapture you and carries a good feeling. "The Real Work," on page thirty-three, Snyder is describing the voyage of a tanker. The scenery surrounding the tanker is serene and peaceful. It could possibly speak of a state of mind. "Pine Tree Tops" circles around a peaceful, snowy, star-filled night. He mentions how the trees bend under the weight of snow. Snyder also brings up deer and other animals leaving tracks, as well a pair of boots. It alludes to the fact that someone is hunting the animals that lurk in the wooded area.
