In Dylan Thomas’s poem, “Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night”, He is telling his father to try to fight death. “Rage, rage against the dying of the light.” When Dylan Thomas wrote, “dying of the light”, he was referring to death. He also writes, “Do not go gentle into that good night,” This means that he is telling readers to deny death, and don’t go without a without a fight. He uses imagery to paint a picture in the reader’s head. 
In Alfred, Lord Tennyson’s poem, “The Charge of The Light Brigade”, He is telling a story to the readers. He is telling how the Light Brigade went into war. In the poem, he says, “Shattered and sundered. They rode back, but not, not the six hundred.” He is saying that men died in the war, and because of that, there are less than six hundred. The readers have a sense of anxiousness as Alfred, Lord Tennyson puts the battle into war. While Dylan Thomas’s poem, it is all about fighting death. In Alfred, Lord Tennyson’s poem, it is somewhat accepting death. 

the author motivation is to show the power of animal-human relationships.
