John Donne's Poem of " The Sun rising".



                                The sun rising
                                                  John Donne


                                          The sun  rising evidence of metaphysical poetry written by John Donne as the pioneer of this school .The poem deals with the theme of the love of a lover of his beloved .It is an addressed as a lover to the rising sun in which the lover portrayed his beloved superior to the rising sun .The lover addressed to the sun as ‘ Busy ’ old fool and unruly ,simply because it peeps though windows because it peeps though windows and curtain into the bedroom of lover where he is in the company of his beloved .The lover wants to make it clear that the season and time lovers can never be governed by the sun to go and apply its force to made school children ,workers  and employees of the court  lover do not accept the concept of the time because month , years ,days and hours are just the rags of time .The lover wants to convey a message to the sun that lovers have nothing to do with either rising or setting of sun.
                                The lover is not ready even to belive that the rays of the sun are powerful .It is possible for him to create and ellipse on the sun simply by closing his eyes but he does not to do that because even  for a movement he cannot bear loosing the sight of his beloved. It is lover’s conviction that there is greater shine in the eyes of his beloved and of the sun looks at her eyes; the eyes of the sun would be dazzled .The lover mention that after taking a round of the earth, the sun would realize real India of spices is in his bedrooms in the form of his beloved.
                                             The lover compares his beloved with all the kingdom states, princes and princesses .One round of the earth would be enough for the sun to realize that the center of the earth is his beloved would be as good the whole world .The lover is of the opinion the the sense of owner it just mimic compared to his love for his beloved even wealth is nothing but a chemical compared to love so the lover and his beloved  is not ready to accept worldly rules and regulation as by the sun.
                              The present poem is an attempt of Donne to established the play of the love higher that the place of the sun .The metaphysical images employed by the poet are ‘Sun’, ‘State’,’ Prince’, ‘Princesses’ India spices and so on it is an experiment of Donne that he uses images from the field of politics and nature for the expression of the love.
