Abstract
In this paper, Zulfikar Ghose’s poem will be analyzed. Ghose is a Pakistani who writes
poems in the English Language. He is known as one of the major Pakistani poets who
opt for English as a medium of expression in spite of their mother-tongue/ national
language. He now lives in Austin, Texas, USA and teaches as a professor at Texas
university. Ghose is an internationally recognized poet with more than fifty poems in
English to his credit. This analysis will help us reach this conclusion whether his poetic
style is similar to the style of the poets who write poems in English as their first
language or it is different. This stylistic analysis will also be helpful in analyzing other
poems by Pakistani poets who chose or choose English as their medium of expression.
A brief literature review presents an explanation given by the linguists of various
linguistic terms commonly which are used in presenting a Stylistic analysis of the poetic
works. The overall Syntactic study will serve as a guide to the readers to analyze other
poetic works at this Linguistic level.
