Kyle Nishimura April 21‚ 2013 IB English Period 1 In the poems Summer Day‚ by Sarah A.Kettler‚ and Parched Earth‚ by Sally Hinton‚ both poets are able to convey their purpose through their use of diction. While the purpose of Kettler’s poem seems to be to essentially describe a summers day and illuminate in it’s laziness‚ Hinton’s purpose is to evaluate the state of Earth’s ecosystem. Like how each person writes a certain way‚ both Kettler and Hinton use their own distinct diction in their poems

No day is perfect as something always seems to go wrong. Little or big there is always a flaw. That is what I have always believed in and probably always will.

The first reason I liked this story is because of its futuristic setting. The story is set in Venus in a jungle where all it does is rain.
