Choose two poems from either one of the collections you read during this unit. In an essay, compare how the speakers of the poems might answer the question: What makes you happy? Use the reading selections to help you answer the question.
(The poem I chose was "Haiku" by Matsuo Basho and "Concrete Cat" by Dorthi Charles. I don't understand when they say "compare how the speakers of the poems might answer the question: What makes you happy?" is someone able to maybe help me understand it? thx)
