Poetry Analysis Andrew Marvell's "To his Coy Mistress" In reading, and analyzing this poem, I found some very interesting points that Marvell brought up. I believe that the main point that he was trying to convey is that life is very short, so while we are here with each other (him and his love) let us procreate, and make love in accordance with what we were put here to do. When you read this poem, …showed first 75 words of 332 total…

…showed last 75 words of 332 total…this man is going to have his way." In conclusion, Marvell basically says, "look, time is devouring us, it's gonna be now or never, I'm starting to become disinterested, you say you want to wait, but we can't make time stand still, nor can we make it go any faster, so what's the difference if we have sex now, or later, better now and later." Although once again, he conveys his message without being distasteful.
