An analysis of “In the Waiting Room” from Elizabeth Bishop There are few poets in 20th century‚ who portrayed their life in their poems as prolifically and thoroughly detailed as Elizabeth Bishop.

From those statements‚ I can make an assumption that not only parent‚ but school and teacher also play
