The tone of the poem “a sight in camp in the daybreak gray and dim” is— despairing. gentle. inflamed. detached.

Walt Whitman is the author of the poem “A Sight in Camp in the Daybreak Gray and Dim”. He was born on May 31, 1819. Walt Whitman is the author of "Leaves of Grass" and, along with Emily Dickinson, is considered one of the architects of a uniquely American poetic voice.

The tone of his poem “A Sight in Camp in the Daybreak Gray and Dim” is:

despairing.

for it presents the general idea of lack of hope. Maybe what gives best this idea are the use of the words: sleepless, hospital,  stretcher and untended, because they refer to sick people just lying there waiting for their imminent death.

by the title it is despairing

1. the details that would clarify the authors purpose for writing would be after the "haley collected used soccer jersey and sent them to guatemalan children." part, he would say, "and you can also donate today to save ". so far in the text, you can see no such thing. if, near the end the author persuades you to donate to guatemalans, then you know that the author's reason to write is to persuade you.

2. what details would make the text more engaging is to see the guatemalan children's reaction to getting free jerseys.

3. the details that convey the author's attitude would be an opinion by the author, for example, if he said, "haley was a very nice girl " or, you can find the attitude by finding parts of haley's personality that he highlights. you can strengthen your tones by using more descriptive words, and simplify long sentences as much as you can.
