In the poem when we two parted by Lord Byron it shows the brake by emotions staged such as sadness,shame,anger and finally regret and betrayal where as in Neutral tones by Thomas hardy it is more of a story of how the relationship ended in the way he gives us details of the setting and how he saw the woman of whom which a relationship ended. But they do share a similarity they both use a regular rhyme scheme and both have four regular stanzas. The language in the way it is written is very different in when we two parted a older English is spoke for example “colder thy kiss” when compared to a line from neutral tones “the smile on ur mouth was the deadest thing alive enough to have strength to die” are completely different in effect as the older English spoke in when we two part sounds more like a live poem where as in neutral tones it’s more of a sad but true effect to the poem. Both poems present the end of a relationship in a melancholy series of events that lead to the same feelings such as sorrow and regret although one was about an affair they both represent the end of a relationship as a emotional process.

My modern take on the Christmas charol
Although the original Christmas carol was a piece that triggered a mass of people to donate money and inspired hundreds to write there own takes on the classic.
If I had the chance have a version I created on the screen as scrooge I would have Liam Neeson as he is such a versatile actor and in a modern take scrooge could be a lonely ex crime boss like in run all night and his fortune is his downfall as he too could save a child with a crippled body of which he caused and soon regretted.
As the three spirit s visit him they could be notorius gangsters such as Alcapone who shows that scrooge was once a sweet young child who of which fezziwig could be the one who got scrooge into crime and marley was the best friend that he lost and who is now trying to prevent the death of scrooge by warning scrooge to fix his mistake or he too will suffer a terrible fate and this would slowly dig into scrooge but I would add a twist where in the post credits he is shot by a blacked out figure who is death himself as too many good deeds were performed in scrooges lifetime.
This to me wouldn’t be the best adaption due to the ending but would be an overall interesting and twisted adaption.
