- When reading this poem the literary aspects of it seem to have very little influence of my opinion and analysis of it. Instead what stood out to me was the strong emotion that this poem evoked from me. This poem hits the reader at a very personal level whether or not they have ever lost a young person in their life or not. Donald Justice uses religious ties and strong ideas to provoke emotions from the reader.
-I believe in order to replicate the tone of this poem, one would need to choose a topic that would automatically draw emotions from the reader, and then try to reach a personal level with them so that it would seem as though the speaker was speaking directly to them.
