For this purpose, the study attempts to understand the meanings behind Rendra;s Surat Cinta and Surat kepada Bunda by discussing the use of metaphors. Both poems are read, re-read and discussed to get their meanings. It is argued that the re-readings show opposite meanings as understiood it the first readings.
