The poem “Thatcher” by Seamus Heaney is taken from a collection of the “Door into the Dark”. ... The first two stanzas carry an enjambment into the third to accentuate the progression and development of the thatcher’s work; and the fourth brings a conclusion to the poem signifying the thatching being complete. On a closer analysis, Heaney is describing the process of writing poetry: the process of unravelling of thoughts and experiences within himself. The thatcher is Heaney and through the use of straw he describes the way he writes his poetry: preparing and assembling each thought and idea and putting them first into words, then into a sentence, finally to make a poem.
In the first stanza, Heaney describes the thatcher getting ready to fix the roof.
