(303 words) Perhaps, the theme of nature occupies one of the important places in the work of poets. But in the lyrics of Sergei Yesenin, it is key and fundamental. In almost every poem, a literary hero either turns to nature or glorifies its beauty and grandeur. Consider this for some Esenin works.
In the poem “Mother went to the Bathhouse in the Forest” (1912), the poet completely identifies himself with nature. According to Yesenin, he was "born with songs in a grass blanket." The river, grass, trees, the sun, the wind - all this is beloved and important for the author. Reading Yesenin’s lines about nature, we feel tenderness and true devotion to the beauties of our native land.
Changes in the fate of the poet have always been associated with changes in the seasons. So, for example, in the lyric work “The Red Light of Dawn Was Tucked out on the Lake” (1910), with the onset of warmth, the hero’s life comes with happiness and peace: “But I don’t cry - it’s light on my soul.” Other feelings fill the lines when nature changes its appearance. In the lyric works “The Golden Grove Dissuaded ...” (1924) and “Leaves Fall, Leaves Fall ...” (1925) with the advent of autumn, the hero begins to feel a slight apathy and sadness.
Nature also helps us better understand Esenin himself. It is from poems that we can learn more about mood or inner experiences. For example, in “We are leaving a little now ...” (1924), the poet is simply glad that nature was in his life: “I am happy that I kissed women, / Crumpled flowers, wallowed on the grass ...”. And in the work “Snowy Plain, the White Moon ...” (1925), with the help of green decoration, all life tragedy and grief for lost youth are transmitted.
“They don’t look at nature, they admire it,” - this is exactly the point of view held by Sergei Yesenin not only in life, but also in his work. The landscape for the poet is a kind of muse, so every line is filled with love, awe and tenderness. Also, the beauty of the native expanse helps the author express all his feelings and feelings. Describing her, he reveals his rich inner world.
