Question

comparing american poems: power of words
poem 1: the voice of change
in the heart of our nation, standing tall,
where freedoms bells continue to call,
like thunder rolling across the plain,
words of justice fall like summer rain.
\together we rise,\ the speaker declares,
through valleys deep and mountain airs.
each syllable sparks a flame so bright,
like stars that pierce the darkest night.
but wait! whats this? a sudden turn—
when truth and hope begin to burn,
the crowd gasps, their hearts take flight,
as wisdom dawns in broad daylight.
poem 2: tomorrows promise
listen closely to the whispered dream,
where hope and courage flow downstream.
through metaphors of golden light,
our future shimmers, burning bright.
how do the authors choices in ordering events within both poems contribute to the development of universal themes?
they establish a clear timeline.
they create a sense of urgency and progression.
they limit the themes to personal experiences.
they ignore historical context.

Explanation:

Ordering of events in poetry can build a sense of movement and forward - push, creating urgency and showing progression, which helps in developing universal themes like hope, change etc. Establishing a clear timeline is not always the main goal. Limiting to personal experiences goes against the idea of universal themes. Ignoring historical context is not related to event - ordering for theme development.

Answer:

They create a sense of urgency and progression.
