The book "<em>If you come softly" </em>was written by Jacqueline Woodson.

The main characters in the story are Jeremiah or Miah and a girl named Elisha or Ellie. They are two teenagers that met in high school and fell in love.

The main themes in the novel are love,religion,social anda racial differences.In the same line as the afore -mentioned topic, Jeremiah remembered an episode of his childhood that involved a cartoon monkey playing basketball. When he saw this , first of all,it caught his attention and provokes shame on him. He felt this way because somehow he felt represented in that monkey as he loved playing this sport. However, to him, the moment he played basketball was the moment his black colour was most notorious.

His impression was that the outside(the society in general,tv commercials)was trying to impose the idea that black people were a problem.

Write two to three sentences explaining the similarities and differences between the haiku by Bashō and the first stanza of Word
Flauer [41]

Answer:

The similarities in the works of both authors showed that they both love nature.

From both literary works,  Basho and Wordsworth love nature and this can be seen in their works. They both stated that nature is important as it beautifies the environment and it's vital to our existence.

The difference between their literary works was that while Wordsworth was the partaker in the action and narrator, Basho was an observer. Wordsworth used the first-person point of view

Also, the majority of Woodsworth's words are adjectives while Basho followed the haiku tradition.
