... One of the most famous writers of the time was Ralph Waldo Emerson. Emerson believed that no religious or political institution was as important or as powerful as the individual human being. ... Emersons "The Rhodora" reflects his belief that "to be" is reason enough to find beauty in Nature. ... Emerson packed and left for Europe to get in touch with some of the greatest philosophers of the time such as Arthur Schopenhauer. ... With this in mind, Emerson began writing poetry.
In the first stanza of “The Rhodora”, Emerson portrays the image of springtime in the month of May, with gentle sea-winds blowing. The revealing of the rhodora inspired him, spreading its leafless blooms in the dark nook. ... In lines 5 and 6, Emerson conveys the theme of natural beauty by giving the images of beautiful purple petals falling into the dark and gloomy pool of water.
