Bye Bye Nature

The "Big Yellow Taxi" written by Joni Mitchell talks about how "they" destroyed her paradise and put up a parking lot. In "Field Below" written by Regina Spektor talks about the same thing and how you should hold onto the things you love and they both love nature and got it taken away from them. Don’t take things for granted is the lesson she wants to teach us. The mood is sad and depressing in the poem and she is heart broken. They both have to do with nature talking about how they out lost there nature. In the song Big Yellow Taxi and the tone sounds happier then the poem. The tones are completely  different with the songs and poems. The lesson the author tries to teach us to hold on to things and to be happy with what you have. The tone in the song and the poem are very similar because they are both kind of sad and depressing. The songs really help with how the author s wrote the poems kind of because they similar. The Big Yellow Taxi is not the same tone though so she made that confusing. When listening to field below I feel more sad because I get to hear it and how it sounds in a song so it much more sad in a song.
