E-V-S (Expletive-Verb-Subject)
Explanation:
Unlike most sentences, this sentence does not follow the usual pattern of Subject + Verb, instead, it begins with an Expletive, then a verb and lastly the subject.
<em>There</em> is the expletive because it is a word without meaning that does not add to the sense of the sentence, and that, instead, is inserted to give emphasis, it acts as an intensifier.
<em>Is</em> is a conjugation of the verb “be” in present and it indicates the existence of the subject.
Lastly, <em>good reason to be thankful</em> is the subject because it is the thing that is being discussed in the sentence.
The speaker in "Making a Fist" is the 7 year old girl who was traveling with her mother, now all grown up.
The poem begins with the speaker remembering when she had been traveling for days with her mother. She was unsure if she would survive the journey and asked her mother "How do you know if you are going to die?". Her mother replied simply, "When you can no longer make a fist." The poem then continues with the speaker mentioning all of the obstacles she has overcome. She keeps opening and closing her hand because she is still alive; she can still make a fist. She has overcome.
