It says "A few cars hissing past". This really helps you visualize and imagine the cars passing and the speed they're going. It also makes the text a lot more interesting and makes you feel like your there with them.]]> 2019-02-12 20:10:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cjburt1/iha5g2ahgbh7/wish/330546075 https://padlet.com/cjburt1/iha5g2ahgbh7/wish/330546179 The alliteration in lines 20 - 23 has to be the B´s in Before, Breathing, Bell, and Bringing. We think it adds rhythm and helping us remember these lines. We think the poet uses alliteration in this section to provide a better picture of what is going on and what they see. We can imagine them outside, breathing while going into a drugstore, and we can imaging the little bell ringing, and bringing the sales lady. The evidence is, ¨Until we were breathing Before a drugstore. We Entered, the tiny bell Bringing a saleslady.¨ ]]> 2019-02-12 20:10:17 UTC https://padlet.com/cjburt1/iha5g2ahgbh7/wish/330546179 https://padlet.com/cjburt1/iha5g2ahgbh7/wish/330546367 The theme seems to be about a preteen's first love. Sometimes love isn't easy like how the boy didn't have money to pay for his girl's candy but they lady at the counter was nice enough to help him out. "When I looked up, the lady's eyes met mine and held them very well knowing what it was all about." This quote shows how human interaction can sometimes hurt love but other times, it helps it.]]> 2019-02-12 20:10:41 UTC https://padlet.com/cjburt1/iha5g2ahgbh7/wish/330546367 https://padlet.com/cjburt1/iha5g2ahgbh7/wish/330546525 He is comparing the orange to fire in line 56. It appears to be bright because it is a dark and cloudy day and oranges are a light color, it says that in line 53 and 54. It is being contrasted to the dark and cloudy day because the orange is light and the dark is dark. ]]> 2019-02-12 20:11:02 UTC https://padlet.com/cjburt1/iha5g2ahgbh7/wish/330546525 https://padlet.com/cjburt1/iha5g2ahgbh7/wish/330549038 The boy is cold and weighted down by the oranges in his pocket " cold and weighted with two oranges in my jacket" The ground is probably frozen sense it crackles beneath his feet.]]> 2019-02-12 20:16:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cjburt1/iha5g2ahgbh7/wish/330549038
