<span>The excerpt that you have written is titled "The Lake of the Dismal Swamp." The poem was written by Thomas Moore. I do believe the question you need answered is "Which poetic device is illustrated by the line, ". . . all night long, by a fire-fly lamp"? The poetic device is called an alliteration.

Answer and Explanation:
Feel free to change anything to make this fit your personality and opinions.
Dear…,
How have you and your family been? I hope everyone has been doing well and staying healthy!
I finally have some free time and some extra money, so I think I will be able to visit you soon. I worked part time for a while and was able to save up a little. I was an apprentice caretaker at a nursing home here in town. It was a wonderful experience, and I must say I will never forget it.
I had to help the caretakers in their daily routine with the seniors. We would do everything, even help them eat and bathe, if it was necessary. We’d bring them their food and medication to make sure they never skipped them. We would also come up with games and activities to keep them active and motivated, you know? There was this one afternoon when we played some instruments and even danced! You should have seen their smiling faces!
I feel changed after this job. It opened my eyes to the difficulties of growing old. Our bodies sometimes seem to give up, even though our minds may stay alert and willing to do much more. Seniors deserve much more attention and respect than what they usually get. I hope I can teach my children that in the future, when I have my own family.
Write to me soon!
