An extraordinary analysis of these poems by Margaret Atwood, thank you for this, I had not read this writer. They are two very deep and heartfelt poems. 

Addressing and developing the subject of death in literature and especially in poetry seems to me liberating, expressing the pain and sadness that leaves us the departure of a loved one through the verses is a way to appease the deep unhappiness and understand that death is inexorably by our side. 

As always an excellent work, @nancybriti, thanks to @adscatly for sharing it.
