Thus, the aim is to attain how Dylan Thomas could describe death as a character in his poems:"A Refusal to Mourn the Death, by Fire, of a Child in London," one of Thomas's more accessible poems that will be undertaken, illustrates well the almost sacramental view of nature that characterizes this later poetry.

In, "And Death Shall Have no Dominion", for it is especially in this poem that he expresses his wide and deep love of humanity and the immortality of the sentiment that death shall never triumph over life.
