His exuberant exclamation near the end of the poem‚ ’and so I send O all my faith and all my love to her...’confirms the strength of these feelings. The warm‚ humorous‚ delightfully frank way Baker describes his ’irresistible’ mother in the intervening lines also convinces us of his strong attachment to her. These feelings are moreover‚ reinforced by the warm‚ playful‚ exuberant tone he employs throughout the poem. To my Mother by George Baker is‚ as the title suggests‚ a tribute to his mother

Depression consumes me and takes my life. I can’t be cheerful or anything that I usually would be and that is not tolerable. I want to be able to sleep at night feeling worthy of myself and my life.

I have chosen to analyze three different roller ball pens that dispense a water-based liquid or gel ink through a ball tip similar to that of a ballpoint pen. The less-viscous ink is more-easily absorbed by paper than oil-based ink‚ and the pen moves more easily across a writing surface. The quality of pen components is checked during
