Quote Integration Practice
★ The poem "Housekeeping" has a solemn tone. The poem uses words like mourn, chipped,
and fallen. "We mourn the broken things, chair legs, wrenched from their seats, chipped
plates, the threadbare clothes." and "We save what we can, melt small pieces of soap,
gather fallen pecans, keep neck bones for soup." This gives the poem a serious tone and
kind of a gloomy feel to it. The words are giving away details of a serious tone and a quiet
type of feeling.
