"Mother to Son" Short Respond

The Broken-up Stairs
           The "Mother to Son" Poem says a lot. Its figurative language says how the perfect life is a crystal staircase, smooth, shiny, with nothing to collide into. Absolutely no problems what so ever. But is anyone's life like that? For this mother, her life is just the opposite.  A broken up stairs with tacks and splinters. The purpose of this is to represent how a hard and troublesome life is that bad staircase that no one wants, but some of us have to climb those stairs. But the way the mom says this poem is in a very inspiring mood and has a calm tone when she says it.
