My interpretation on "Love For This Book" by Pablo Neruda is that it is about how Pablo wishes that one day that he would be able to see how it would be like if everyone had wealth put upon them so that way they could be able to buy what it is that they need for their families. The poem relates to an experience of Pablo's life because he wrote this poem after his experience when he went back to Chile in 1943 when he was elected senate he had thought that he would have everything that he needed,then kicked off and had left somewhere. If Pablo Neruda were living to this very day, everyone around the world would be more interested in the next poems that he would have written. The poetic devices that are being used in the poem are metaphors, and repetition. In the poem, he repeats, "What do we leave" two times. The metaphor that is being used in the poem is "what do we leave but the lost cry of the seabird.

Hello Tiffany!
What a beautiful blog! I agree that when he was elected to the senate, he may have felt fulfilled. Perhaps he felt that now he would be in a position to help others get what they needed since he was elected to the senate.
You might like some of his other poems. He wrote very nice love poems.
