The Lonely Land
A.J.M. Smith
Cedar and jagged fir
uplift sharp barbs
against the gray
and cloud-piled sky;
and in the bay
blown spume and windrift
and thin, bitter spray
snap
at the whirling sky;
and the pine trees
lean one way.
A wild duck calls
to her mate,
and ragged
and passionate tones
stagger and fall,
and recover,
and stagger and fall,
on these stones -
are lost
in the lapping of water
on smooth, flat stones.
This is a beauty
of dissonance,
this resonance
of stony strand,
this smoky cry
curled over a black pine
like a broken
and wind-battered branch
when the wind
bends the tops of the pine
like a broken
and wind-battered branch
when the wind
bends the tops of the pines
and curdles the sky
from the north.
This is the beauty
of strength
broken by strength
and still strong

In his poem "The Lonely Land," A.J.M. Smith paints a picture of a landscape filled with both beauty and conflict. Repetition in the second verse is used in conjunction with personification to drive home the reader the feeling of loneliness and abandonment. He effectively uses imagery and language to suggest that beauty can be derived from conflict.Smith immediately begins his painting with a sense of conflict: He paints a "grey and cloud-piled sky" and fills the soft image with cedar and "jagged fir," a much more bold and harsh image. In the third stanza, whilst the reader is at odds with him or herself, the speaker brings in a sense of hope and optimism.
