Free verse sounds more conversational, like people talking. Free verse creates a more American style. Free verse is less formal. Free verse conveys whitman's ideas about individualism, life, death, or the american landscape.

The poem I have chosen is Small Dragon by Brian Patten.

The poem appeals to children's imagination to tell them about a dragon that the author has found in the forest. The author depicts the dragon. He says that it feds on many things  like grass, roots of stars, hazel nut and dandelion. Then the author says the dragon made a nest among the coal not unlike a bird but larger. the author says that if you believed in it he would come hurrying to your house to let you share this wonder. In this way he leans on children's innocense to make them believe.

What I liked about this poem is that in a world in which children are treated like adults and they have to worry about life. In a world in which children are forced to work and they have to make a living, there is this dragon that appears in the forest. Thus the author appeals to the innocense of children to make them believe in a wonderful creature, in a wonderful life.  

The quote that I like is

If you believed in it I would come

hurrying to your house to let you share this wonder,

Because that makes me think that there is a dragon, that there is a wonderlful creature in the forest. I just have to believe.

Answer: General Barker was in a hurry to get everything ready for the experiment.

Explanation:

A woman preparing Thanksgiving dinner for twenty has lots of dishes to make and has a challenging work on her hand and lots of work to do. Typically, this woman will be in a hurry to get things done and get everything ready in time.

The same thing applies to General Barker. He was in a hurry and rushing as he wanted to get everything set and ready for the experiment that he had.
