We stood awhile, marveling at America, both of us trying hard to feel luckier
than we felt, both of us pointing out
the beach pails, the shovels, the sand castles

no wave would ever topple, the red and blue boats.
And when we backed away, we saw our reflections
superimposed, big-eyed, dressed too formally
with all due respect as visitors to this country.

What does this scene tell us about the speaker's feelings about America? Why do the speaker and the speaker's father not feel lucky despite their attempts to marvel at America? Use evidence from the poem to support your response.

i think the answer is hope it

hmm, sadly there is no dialogue. there is no place in the story where he is talking to anyone. it's more of just describing what he eats and where he sleeps. you have to become anne frank, give details of where you are, what other folks look like, how the environment is. have a little bit of dialogue tell of what people are specifically saying. anne frank talked about her entire household including the people, the objects, the lighting, the food they ate, and even the smell in the air. there has to be more to your diary entries, the whole story in its current state is only about peter van daan, the food, the sounds, and where he sleeps. also he seems to be writing only once a year yet more than that happened from day to day. for a friend, i can you write it out, if you want.

well people will have to mark your answer as the best answer. and from that u receive crowns.
