I love this poem by D.H Lawrence because of the message it brings. This five stanza relays the message that the other countries try to let others know in a nice way of something that is not so nice. Every time I read this poem it makes me laugh because of the first two line of the poem "The English are so nice so awfully nice." This shows the oxymoron by having it say that they are nice but behind everything they really are not. Also, he says that if your not nice they will let you now that your not being nice, this goes to show that they don't have to be nice but they are mean to you to make sure that your nice. This part of the poem reminds me of people who are like hey get back to work and they are the ones not working!!! Gosh that makes me mad and this is what reminds me of this. The last two stanzas of this poem sums up the whole poem because it says that you really dont have to be nice back because they really dont know what nice is because they are never nice in the first place.
