The writer analyzes these poems based on the natural interpretation, the poetic words related to the natural words, and naturalism theory and concept applied in the poems.

Some of the poems express his missing with the nature, his lost times, his love to the nature and the changing of nature. Some poems also use a specific person even tliey do not dominate the poems story. They are only as the supporting person in comparation between him and the nature. The poetic dictions are dominated by natural words such as mountain, rock, water etc, and beautiful pattern of sentence that expresses the beauty ofnature, to show the naturalness ofthe poem as it seems to be and support his idea in expressing his natural surrounding. Based on that, some of the interpretation will connect to the naturalism theory or concept, in order to make it more valuable.
