Mark language in paragraphs 7–10 that reveal the atmosphere in the camp on the night before the battle. What mood do these details create? Now and again the boy heard a vast wind come up, that gently stirred the air. But he knew what it was, the army here, the army there, whispering to itself in the dark. Some men talking to others, others murmuring to themselves, and all so quiet it was like a natural element arisen from south or north with the motion of the earth toward dawn. What the men whispered the boy could only guess, and he guessed that it was: Me, I’m the one, I’m the one of all the rest won’t die. I’ll live through it. I’ll go home. The band will play. And I’ll be there to hear it. Yes, thought the boy, that’s all very well for them, they can give as good as they get !For with the careless bones of the young men harvested by night and bindled3 around campfires were the similarly strewn steel bones of their rifles, with bayonets fixed like eternal lightning lost in the orchard grass.

Sometimes I lie awake at night

Wondering why

Counting stars or sheep doesn't work anymore.

The clock keeps on ticking

And before I realize,

The Sun has already hit my face.

Explanation:

The main thing that distinguishes narrative poetry, is a clear goal to tell a story in a more straight forward manner that is easier to follow. In the short poem for the exercise, we have various images that share a certain theme but are somewhat disjointed. What I did was use connectors ("and before I realize") and a few actions ("counting", "keeps on ticking", "has already hit") that seemed organic and blended well with the imagery given.

Hope this helps!
