Letter to a Young Refugee from another and Farewell to Manzanar
are both stories about struggles of families inside a refugee camp for the
former and internment camp for the latter. In the “Letter to a Young refugee”
which took place in Guam after the Vietnam war, Lam addresses another refugee
he saw in the news to relate his previous experience. The theme is more like, “I
know what you are going through.”
In “Farewell to Manzanar”, the main character went back to
the old camp in Manzanar much later in her life to reflect on what used to be her life
there as a displaced Japanese in America.
1. You can see through the comparison to a mountain, that the grandpa is tall and always there 'looming' (hovering) over the speaker. You can see that the speaker does not speak much around his grandpa, as he is "silent as a stone".
2. These details show that the speaker is impressed by his grandpa and looks up to him the way a stone would look up to a mountain-it shows that he hopes one day he will grow to be like his grandpa.
3. The theme of this poem is shown through the way the speaker looks at his grandpa and the shed. The shed needs more than paint because it is so old, which relates to his grandpa and the theme of growing older.
