$y these /ines it is c/ear that God ma es us and he /oves us a//.

!y opinion about this poem is &ith /ove God has made his a// creaturesand he /oves us a//. 5n this &or/d every e/ements are interdependent. 5anything changes the nature &i// change tota//y because &ithout anythingit is impossib/e to /ive another thing. Everything is very necessary to eepba/ance o nature. #ometimes human beings are responsib/e orsupernatura/ism because they i// the creatures o God.

5n this poem the mariner had i//ed one innocence creature o God. ethought about uture danger that is &hy he had shot the bird. At rst hehad no sympathy or the creature o God. $y the se/ rea/i3ationunconscious/y sympathy or creatures o God in his heart that is &hy Godhad orgotten mariner@s sin. When the &eather had become very hot and

on/y he &as a/ive( he rea/i3ed his error that is &hy he had decided to hangthe dead Albatross.

Thus God /oves us a//( it is duty o human beings to /ove his a// creaturebecause human beings and the nature@s every e/ements are inter4re/atedand inter4dependent. We cannot /ive &ithout any e/ement o nature.

#o it has proved that the creatures o God are very beauti u/ and thepresents o God have in every creature. 5t is our duty to /ove God@s a//creatures
