Woodrow Willson had many ideas to help bring peace to the war. A few of his other…

World War One was a devastation and to guarantee peace amongst the countries a treaty was created. The Treaty of Versailles affected countries such as France, Britain, Germany and the U.S. and it was used as a prevention for future wars.

is a short poem of thirty five lines of free verse, without a regular rhyme scheme or meter. The persona, a fourteen-year-old female, uses simple vocabulary, declarative sentences, and speaks directly to her audience, making readers aware of her anxieties, isolation, and loneliness.
