Evaluation
Dea Mel's poem is exquisite, skillful, and has changed in the form of works, which is quite admired by Eliot, Otang and other sectors. However, his poem has inherited the romantic and even earlier English poetic traditions in the 19th century, with modernism and helpless. He declared in the long poetry "Speed": poetry is the use of language "faithful and perfectly saved the attempt to be expressed." Therefore, its poetry is simple and unwrout, and there is a narrative, description, and the beauty of the drama, often gives readers to have the room that is imagined. Its a large number of "children's poems" are simple and unusual, some people are more like William Black, but their work is never embarrassed. However, its theme is not "modern", and the color is dark, the lack of life, the sacred world is sorghum, and the sigh of the vocabulary, the sage, the center of the creation, although Otang said that his skills and wisdom constantly mature, until the end of life.
