Write a 250-300 word essay in which you discuss these issues: 1) What is the story in the poem? What is your reaction after reading this poem? 2)Who is speaker/narrator, and what can you tell what the relationship is with the brother and father? 3) The Buddhist New Year’s Lanterns (new year festival in Asia) are created using various colored tissue paper which is very fragile.
