One Night
One Night by Ann Gray An Elegy Analysis by Karl V . The poem “One Night” by Ann Gray is an example of elegy or a poem of serious reflection, typically a lament of the dead . As expected, the mood of the poem is sadness and sympathy. The poem is about a woman who has produced a great imagination about her dead husband due to her grief. The character includes the woman, the husband, Nick and Beth, all in one setting (in the bedroom where the woman imagines the scenes).
