![]() The second part of the poem talks about a point where the past, the future and the present meet, a place where everything stops. However, the reality is different in the garden from what many believed it would be and as a result many are disappointed. The garden is already inhabited by birds that take care of the humans who arrive there. Someone people only want to reach the garden because everyone else wants to do it as well and thus they do not have a clear idea in their mind of what to do next. The goal we want to achieve but some of us never do is compared with a ‘’rose garden’’, an idyllic place where everyone wants to see and experience but yet only few do. Humans will always think about the things they did not do and the paths they did not take and wonder what would have happened should they have chosen a different path. The narrator points the difference between what happened in someone’s past and the tendency to discuss what really happened shows how no matter what happened, everything will eventually lead to the end. The past, the present and the future are analyzed and the narrator highlights how they are all connected. In the first part of the poem, the narrator discusses and analyzes the idea of time. ![]() The first poem in the collection is entitled "Burnt Norton" and is divided into a number of parts.
