(1) It is Philip Morin Freneau's poetry. The short lyric was written in 1786.It's said that the poet was inspired by the beauty of the wild honey suckle when he was walking in a garden.

(2) The poet describes his thoughts to readers on the themes of life and death in the form of a blooming flower of life. In the beginning, the poem points out the secluded nature of the place where the honey suckle so comely grew, drawing a conclusion that it was due to nature's protectiveness that the flower was able to lead a peaceful life free from men's disturbance and destruction. The poet admired the beauty of nature. Even in these idyllic circumstances, however, the honeysuckle's days are numbered. No one can violate the great law of nature, even under protective wings of an angel or grew in the Eden. Our fate is doomed. The poem's philosophical weight resides in the final stanza. If nothing once, you nothing lose. It tells us to be optimistic when you face the difficulty.And be sure of what you like and love your life.

(3) The poet used many figures of speech in the poem. First, it's personification.The poet used “you” to describe the Wild Honey Suckle. Second is the use of parallelism.“Untouched thy honeyed blossoms blow. Unseen thy little branches greet; No roving foot shall crush thee here. No busy hand provokes a tear.” Third is the use of repetition. “If nothing once, you nothing lose.” Two “nothing” are repetition. Fourth is the use of hyperbole. “The space between, is but an hour,” which is the frail duration of a flower.An hour is too rapid of a flower like honeysuckle to fade. Fifth is the use of metaphor.From the first stanza fair flower to the end the frail of a flower, the life of a flower just like the life of a human being. Our fate is doomed.
