In this poem, the author's purpose is most likely to convey the feeling of desperation that the child feels when left alone. We learn that he is very upset to see his father walk fast. We also learn that he fears being lost if the father does not slow down for him. This poem shows the importance that the father has on the life of the boy, and how desperate people can become when they fear loneliness.

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

These word choices highlight the tone of irony.

Explanation:

The question above is about the poem "War is Kind" written by Stephen Crane. The entire poem has a strong tone of verbal irony, which can first be found in the poem speaker's statements about why women should not cry because the men they love were killed in war, because war is a good and benevolent thing. This characteristic of war contains strong irony, since nothing good and benevolent would kill anyone.

Verbal irony is reinforced by the use of contradictory ideas like those found in the question above, where the author mixes the characteristics that war promoters impose on themselves and the real characteristics among them.
