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.

Why is mercury usually hard to see without a telescope?
Morgarella [4.7K]
To see Mercury with your naked eye is only possible when it is at its greatest "elongation" or basically when the angle of separation between the Sun or Mercury is at it's greatest value, however it is not always a promised success of viewing Mercury. It also depends on the phase of the plant to determine how bright it is!

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Apr 2014  

You Learn (by Jorge Luis Borges)  

The poverty of yesterday was less squalid than the poverty we purchase with our industry today.  

Fortunes were smaller then as well.

(The Elderly Lady)

After a while you learn the subtle difference

Between holding a hand and chaining a soul,

And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning
