Spring is a season of life and fertility when many plants and animals are abundant. In his work "Walden", Henry David Thoreau shows a strong admiration for nature by describing his personal experience with spring at Walden Pond. In his description, Thoreau observes his surroundings and shares his attitude towards nature and how important it is to us. To better describe his experience, he uses imagery, tone, and point of view to give readers a sense of his attitude toward nature. By examining these three literary elements in Thoreau's writings, it is clear that Thoreau truly has a strong admiration for nature.

For example, he describes the fish by saying, “…I got a rare mess of golden, silver, bright cupreous fish, which looked like a string of jewels.” The vivid description of the fish allows readers to easily imagine what the fish look like and also enjoy their beauty. Thoreau also carefully describes the setting of the pond. He begins the story by telling readers that he is fishing from the riverbank, "standing on the trembling grass and willow roots, where the muskrats hide." His use of imagery in describing the pond makes the pond in Chu 2 seem alive with creatures lurking all around. The imagery inserted into each line of “Walden” makes the nature that Thoreau is observing seem incredible to read… in the middle of the paper… with nature. Because the writing is all first person, with a central narrative point of view, it gives a feeling of authenticity to Thoreau's writing so that readers are able to truly experience Thoreau's fascination with nature.
