Question

In your opinion, which poem "The Voice" or "My Father's Song" does a better job of characterizing the person being remembered? Support your opinion with details.

Answer 1

My Fathers Song does a better job of characterizing the person being remembered in my opinion. The author says ‘I remember the soft damp sand in my hand.’ Then he proceeds to keep adding details to that memory of his father, in the beginning of the poem is talks about how he misses his father and adds details about his father. Some details like his voice and thin chest. (Brainless answer?)
