This is a very beautiful view. This is a hill beside Mississippi river. I think it is afternoon, and the sun goes down. Every time I see this picture I feel very comfortable.

The forest is very beautiful and I love the green of summer. The red sun is telling us, this is the end of the day, we need review all the things we have done today. I love afternoon's sun and the Hill.

“Asal Mahale village, near Caspian Sea misty forest of Dohezar”, the location of the place in this photo. I think this photo absolutely showed the meaning of the poem: in the afternoon, the author sit on the village, she is looking at her house, and tyring to find her house by the light.

There is a lonely mood on my brain after I read the poem, sound like the poet lost her way to home. The photographer of this image brought this emotional state. That is why I chose this image.

I chose this photo because it is a place where I would like to be and which is what the Poet Edna St. Vicent Millay wanted to express in her poem “Afternoon on a Hill”. This an amazing picture that makes me feel as in the poem says “I would be the gladest thing under the sun!”, exept that I would be the gladest thing under many suns. I will not touch flowers, I will not waych the wind or grass, and not even the town, however I will feel as the most tremendously and special person to be in a place where nohuman has been before, in fact, I will be amazed to appreciate the magestic universe which will never end.

The photographer Tim Porter has taken a nice shot of a hill from San Francisco.

It shares a very strong similarity to the one which is in the poem.

It cheered me by the loveliness of its sunshine, the balminess of the air, the singing birds...

The leaves glowed in the sunshine, which is gorgeous

Anyway I’m impressed with this classy photo

Afternoon on a Hill

Edna St. Vincent Millay

I will be the gladdest thing
Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one.

I will look at cliffs and clouds
With quiet eyes,
Watch the wind blow down the grass,
And the grass rise.

And when lights begin to show
Up from town,
I will mark which must be mine,
And then start down.

***********************************

When I saw this picture, I was just fall into this image.

This picture makes me imagine that I am on the hill

and I am lying down on the hill.

The sun light gives hope to the house, people who are in this house,

will have feeling of euphoria

and deep silence reigned into the house.

Shadow from the sun makes me relaxed.

I am blinking through the sun.

At the same time, I am trace back a vague memory.

I traveled in southern America

and i stay one night just look like this house.

It was calm and carefree.

That's why I pick this picture, The poem

and this picture are connected by my memory.

Afternoon on a Hill

Edna St. vincent Millay

I will be the gladdest thing

Under the sun!

-I think, this image is the best image for this part of the poem.

The flowers look like the gladdest thing. Because they are

very shiny under the sun and feel like warm and relax.

I will touch a hundred flowers

And not pick one.

-When i see this image, I feel like i can touch a hundred flowers

in this image. The flowers are really beautiful and

match with this poem very well.

I will look at cliffs and clouds
with quiet eyes,

-If i am in this image, i might be close my eyes and
try to feel in my mind.
The cliffs and clouds make me feel quiet and comfortable.



Watch the wind blow down the grass,
And the grass rise.

And when lights begin to show
Up from town,
I will mark which must be mine,
And then start down.

-This image is common with this poem.
The girl who is in the image seems like look at her house on the hill
and feels really comfortable and glad.

This picture is the best image of the poem after I read it. The sky is so bright and clear. When I look up, it makes me feel really positive. There are hundred of flowers that are blooming under the sunshine; it looks lively and sprightly. The grass is green and extends to no end. The whole picture looks really serene and graceful.
