A melting iceberg is a merry sight
by filling the sea with all its might
with love in tears it flows by
and showers love by and by <span />
Answer:
A
Explanation:
because the images give you a idea in your head about what your going to read.
He wishes his father would just listen to him about what happened to him in Vietnam and all the horrors he went through and give him credit for the 7 medals he had received for his efforts in the war. However, his father was in a rather depressed state and did not see medals as a measure of a man's ability or heroism. All his son wanted to do was get some of the pressures of the war off his chest and be admired some by his dad but it was useless and it just had to keep it inside. The guilt and the good that he felt was a burden he carried. He also wished his father would recognize what a good soldier he himself had been instead of withdrawing to himself after the war. As a result he sees and feels no use for his life after the war
Neutral denotation for this answer
1. The speaker is most likely a common man living in a town in Victoria. The fact I understand from the text is that, the speaker is a patriotic person. He is so sad about the destruction caused after, probably a war.
2. In my Opinion, this poem is trying to give a vivid picture of a place after a war, probably.
3. The speaker's tone towards the city is a pity as well as a humorous tone. His reference "Here are broken fingerbones of clay pipes" is a pitiful statement and his words "and mud is thick as meat".
4. I think the poem literally comes between the year 1990 - 1999. This is proved when he refers "air sweet as rust" as there were wars during that time in major parts of Asia.
5. The words mud is thick as meat, seed stained black, inner city's chalk, broken fingerbones of clay piles etc are some of the main humorous as well as unimaginable quotes made by the speaker in order to say about his feelings of the ruined city.
Hope it helps you...
