In "Sonnet 73," How does the poet use descriptions of the last golden leaves on a tree and the last flames of a dying fire to reflect irony? I'LL GIVE BRAINLIEST!

SONNET 73
That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruin’d choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
5 In me thou seest the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west,
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death’s second self, that seals up all in rest.
In me thou see’st the glowing of such fire
10 That on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
As the death-bed whereon it must expire
Consumed with that which it was nourish’d by.
This thou perceivest, which makes thy love more strong,
To love that well which thou must leave ere long

People who have their phones are more likely to have a troubled relationship. The cartoon is illustrating the fact that in this society in the 21st century, we are never truly connected, and we are all shaped by and addicted to our technology that we never think about our loved ones.

The picture shows people hugging while staring at their phones. This shows how society has lost themselves within the internet or electronics. Instead of enjoying the moment and love they receive from people around them, they decide to scroll through the internet. It is not healthy as it can lead to trouble in someone’s relationship. Research has proven that overuse of phones can cause dissatisfaction with a partner in a relationship. It has also been proven by people who are in a relationship that using phones most of the time causes problems, such as a boring relationship and more arguments. people who stare at their phones will never understand the beauty of having a relationship.

A set of studies showed that just having a phone out and present during a conversation (say, on the table between you) interferes with your sense of connection to the other person, the feelings of closeness experienced, and the quality of the conversation. This phenomenon is especially the case during meaningful conversations—you lose the opportunity for true and authentic connection to another person, the core tenet of any friendship or relationship. When we are on our phones, we are not looking at other people and not reading their facial expressions (tears in their eyes, frowns, smiles). We do not hear the nuances in their tone of voice (was it shaky with anxiety?) or notice their body posture (slumped and sad? or excited and enthusiastic?). According to these studies, conversations with no smartphones present are rated as significantly higher-quality than those with smartphones around, regardless of people’s age, ethnicity, gender, or mood. We feel more empathy when smartphones are put away. people should put their phones on do not disturb and focus on the person they are eating or going out with.

People who have a phone and are not paying attention are more likely to have an unhealthy relationship because they are not focusing on their partners needs or wants, they are just zoned in on the internet and technology instead of being in the real world.

Why do you think that Mildred overdoses on pills?

Why did black soilder risk to be free

How beautifully she sings and dances enticing people by her prances a spark that sets all in motion taps the ground by the dainty feet in  commotion her beauty and charm bewitch the mob

As she moves dances her skirt sways  in the  flowing wind leading her to her own destiny like wings that dont know how to fly... letting the rest of the world disappear

The key to her heart was and is music for all  nonchalance  that she showed to to the world,she acctually led her life with an intensity and passion that was rarely  seen ,ever... And that was the secret of her inner world and soul, which she guarded  fiercely,never letting anyone in why? Nobody knows.

"They labelled her insane because she twirled to the natures melody"  and that is the one and only esmeralda 

give me feed back pls​
