Tilia cordata
In the poem “Tilia Cordata” , The author briefly describes the nature of the scenery around themself, describing what appears to be a tree or flowers. The author deeply simplifies the meaning of the specific season taking place in the writing which is spring, talking about fragrances that occur throughout the experince. The main point of this poem is the narrator, sharing her experience that she faces during the holocaust , explaining her emotions and her feeling making the reader feel pathos. Overall, This is a really difficult poem to understand with all the perplexing words and phrases.

when the author talked about being scared of taking showers the first picture that came to my mind was the scene from the movie "life is beautiful" when all those kids took a shower and died. I felt what the writer imagine and felt while writing the poem. It is a very sensitive topic that touched many people for many years.
