| Notes | The poet-speaker of the poem describes her homeland, Poland, in glowing terms, comparing it to Ireland in numerous ways. The speaker's sense of displacement from her homeland is obvious in the poem, as she fondly looks back at the differences between Irish and Polish culture. The reader may imagine a sense of cultural dislocation or alienation from Ireland, and a fondness for her memories of her homeland. |
