“It is essential to poetry that it should be simple, and appeal to the elements and primary laws of nature; that it should be sensuous, and by its imagery elicit truth at a flash; that it should be impassioned, and be able to move our feelings and awaken affection”.
I chose this quotation, because, as we could read, during all the poem Coleridge talks about nature, but he does not talk about the nature that we know, an usual nature, he goes beyond our senses. He talks about a wanted nature, something that it does not exist in our world, it is like a Paradise that he is inventing and looking for. This Paradise, in my opinion, it is kind of weird, but it is because we all have different perceptions of what a Paradise is. I think that it depends on the moment that we are living in our daily lives. Maybe it is because he was used to take opium as a medicine his thoughts were a little weird and for him that was the calm that he was looking for.
