In this poem by Gary Soto, the author reflects on the feelings that he has for the woman he loves.

The author tells us that he is poor and unimpressive, while the woman is much better than him. However, throughout the poem, he highlights the fact that he wants to be loved and seen by the woman, even if he is not very impressive. The last image he offers in the text is that of a daffodil and wheat. He compares himself to wheat, which is resistant, even if not impressive. On the other hand, while the daffodil is more beautiful, it is weak and often goes unnoticed, ending up destroyed in the mud when the rain comes. The author highlights the fact that his qualities might be less obvious, but they exist, and this should motivate the woman in question to give him a chance.

ANTONII [103]

Rainsford needs control of his emotions to overcome his largest conflict, General Zaroff.

Dear Dad,

I hope you are doing good, You have always been a good father to me and Brook. I know you have our best interests at heart so i'm writing to you concerning a serious issue.

The heatwave since we entered summer this year has been unbearable in the house and as a result i find it difficult to sleep or study because i am always uncomfortable. This has begun to affect my studies as i noticed i started having shorter attention spans and i find it more difficult to understand much in class.

I believe if we can get an air conditioner and install in the house, all these problems would become a thing of the past and we can return to being comfortable. I love you dad.

Your son,

Daniel.
