I can’t tell from just the three choices — I need the poem (or at least a few lines) to decide. Please paste it.
If you want to decide on your own, use this quick checklist:
- Pronouns/voice: first‑person “I” usually means a participant (could be the boy or the father); third‑person (“he,” “they”) usually means an outside observer.
- Knowledge level: does the narrator know characters’ private thoughts? If yes, they’re omniscient (an outside narrator). If they only report what they themselves see/feel, they’re a participant (the boy or father).
- Age/relationship cues: words like “my son,” “my father,” or childlike diction point to father or boy respectively.
- Perspective on events: a watcher will describe what’s visible and may be detached; a father will show parental feelings/responsibility; the boy will describe immediate sensations and child concerns.
Paste the poem and I’ll pick the best answer and explain why.
