A Dream Within a Dream

The poem "A Dream within a Dream" has Romanticism all over it. They way the poem is always using me as in first person, is a huge give away. The use of nature is so potent and also reflects Romanticism. For example, "And I hold within my hand, Grains of the golden sand-, How few! yet how they creep, Through my fingers to the deep," vividly paints you a picture including nature. The I's have it and Romanticism is all over this poem.
