1. At the beginning of the poem, Seamus is sitting in his bedroom looking at his farther digging for potatoes.
2.The sight of his farther digging reminds him of 20 years ago.
3. The other person who the writer associated digging with was his grandfather.
4. The memory he has about his grandfather is him taking a bottle of milk to him whilst he was digging.
5. The skill that the writer is going to use is writing poetry.
A.The poem is about how he admires his farther and his grandfather.
B.The words and phrases that struck me was 'farther' because he keeps referring too his farther due to admiration.
C.He is different to his farther because he wants to become and writer and not farmer.
1.The poet uses onomatopoeia a number of times. The first example i am going to use is 'the squelch and slap of soggy peat.' This immediately reminds you of the mud that the poet describes.
