Which point of view does the narrator use in the passage?"I will take the box. Here is the basket."And he shifted the box to his own back, regardless of the best robe he wore, and she, still speechless, took the handle of the basket. He thought of the hundred courts he had come through and of his figure, absurd under its burden."If there were a side gate" he muttered, and she nodded after a little thought, as though she did not understand too quickly what he said.From Pearl S.

Please let me know what you think! I have been working A LOT on this poem and still am, I hope you like it! Let me know if the message of the poem is conveyed well and if it sounds to rigid or if it flows very well.~Nuvole bianche~By; Jacob OdomThe sun paints the sky with such colours as the golden riches of twilight and the pure white silks, such beauty... Fleeting beauty found in the moments before dark, such beauty Those clouds, seen by children as the living imagination;Watch as they lie down in the field and dream of the lives and joys to come in the future, that are found in their imaginations, such beauty... Such purity, that is what is lost in life, the courage to imagine, to see the white clouds and dream of the simple joys of this life, such sweet sorrow....Lost sight of the hopes, lost sight of the dream, the dream that brought such joy, where have the clouds goneLike twilight, such is the way of childhood, here for the fleeting moments of the rich gold and silver linings that crown the clouds, such hopeful beauty...But as soon as the clouds are here, just as fast they hang with the thundering rain, such sorrow of a wasted dream Through the night, until the morning, when the sun shines again to bring back the hopes of a new dream, such beautyFleeting is the twilight, but such beauty that the sun comes again, such hopeAnd all to dream on Nuvole bianche, until the morning;Nuvole bianche Such hopeful beauty.~((Nuvole Bianche meaning White Clouds~
Which point of view does the narrator use in the passage?Dale's family knows cars. In fact, his big brother Lavender, who I will one day marry, races at Carolina Raceway. Dale kicked a tire and squinted at the silvery letters sprawling across the car's fender. "Used to be a Thunderbird," he announced. "Looks like the T and H fell off.""Well, it's an Underbird now," I said, waving my key in front of the caf's door.From Sheila Turnage, Three Times Lucky.
