... Compare the ways in which Plath uses imagery and description in Mirror and Blackberrying, and Heaney in Churning Day and Blackberry-Picking. Some of the most distinguished poetry to come out of this century has come from the works of Seamus Heaney and Sylvia Plath. In this essay I shall compare these two poets by studying two poems written by each of them and analysing the different ways upon which they use imagery. The two poems by Plath I shall study are Mirror and Blackberrying and the two by Heaney are entitled Blackberry-Picking and Churning Day. All four of these poems contain strong and powerful uses of imagery by both poets and this is why they have been chosen for this essay. Mirror is a very riddled poem full of double meanings in the imagery description. She begins by introducing the mirror, but not as an object but a being with its own
