Thomas Thomas's poetry is marked by vivid metaphors, the use of Christian and Freudian imagery, and celebration of the wonder of growth and death. "My poetry," Thomas once said, "is the record of my individual struggle from darkness toward some measure of light." Among his best-known individual poems are 'And death shall have no dominion,' 'Altarwise by owllight' (a sonnet sequence), 'A Refusal to Mourn the Death, by Fire, of a Child in London,' 'Do not go gentle into that good night,' 'In My Craft and Sullen Art,' and 'Fern Hill.' Emily The love of nature that Emily had is very apparent in her writing.
