What are the things that this poem is describing about the school?
Schools is the place where we get all the knowledge and it teaches us a lot of thing that we might face future. But when students goes to school they do not feel that this is the institution that will help us to move forward. The poet also describing that how he now miss his school days. When he passed by the school he remember the past days that he had spent in his school. He is studying about “botany of good and evil” and he wants to study this until he dies. He is also describing about how is school campus. People do miss school after they graduate.
I see a contrast between the students and the poet. The poet enjoys school for the sake of learning while the students hate school and only go grades and not learning. When you say people miss school after they graduate, do you mean in terms of the poet or both the poet and the students? In terms of studying until he dies, the poet believes that knowledge is key until the end and that school should carry on not physically but mentally.
