The poet present him and his father relationship in many in a lot ways throughout the poem. The poet use simile when he said “his shoulder globe like a full sail strung between the shaft and the furrow”. This simile shows that the son admires his father about how strong he and bulky his is, this shows that the their father son relationship was a close one and that he loves his father and comparing to a bulky person and his hero. The word globed alsom suggests that he is a man with great strength, and also the comparison shows a man who spend most of his life outdoors and part of nature.

“An expert” the boy would have seen his father as the only true man in his life and also a perfect person who knows how to manage both family and strenuous work,the the word expert to describe him as a person he is looking forward to and his guider, the relationship between them was tight so he use this complimentary words to describe to show the love he has for him,although the poet always gets in his fathersway he still do his job perfectly.also the quote sometimes he rod me on his back dipping and rising to his plod

” this shows that although his father do this hard work he still have time for him and he look towars his father as a learner but their relationship was not clear enough because it said “sometimes” which means that his father is majorly focused on his ploughing and not get time for him all the time, but because a little boy he knows nothing much so the little time his father spends with him was enough as a toddler at the, but now he has grow up and he has seen that his father spends just little time with him, but the little time was even in his work time by which he rode him on his back, but the poet is being appreciative by the time they spend together when he was young.

The poem is basically based on his father hard working as a person whom he always forward onto his father as a person and skilled the words “his eye narrowed and angled to the ground mappimg at the furrow exactly” this shows that that his father was perfectly skilled at the job he is doing like the word “angled” and  “furrow exactly” shows that his father was a skilled person at farming. The poem hasd only six stanzas the first three about the father and the last three about him, which shows that their relationship is balanced even though the reversiblity of role by which the son would take the role of father and be more of a nature person because he woulod go out to work, but his fatther would spend most of his life indoor being cared for his son because he is old.

The word ” i stumbled in his hob-nailed wake” shows the disruption that the poet is doing to his father still his father did`nt get distracted and was a perfect man, which shows that the poet is looking forward to his father  as a role model who he wants to be like when he said ” i wanted to grow up and plough” this shows that his father hard skilled working motivates him to become a farmer like him as well. And the last stanzas which said ” i was a nuisance tripping falling and yapping always” this shows that the poet was not be ptrctically supportive to his father instead he is always happy and being a distraction to his father, but now “it is my father whomkeep stumbling behind me and will not go away” shows their change in role and now he feel proud of himself that he is now the one taking care of him”. This poem shows that the relationship between both the poet and his father was a very close bond and will be continuous.

If i were to write a modern day Christmas Carol it would in a rural area or a country where only lower class people are living but only one rich man as scrooge lives. He would not have a partner nor a clerk but his wife and kids. One thing he should also hate is also Christmas. He would not take care of his wife and children.                                                                                                                                                                            He would be an important man in the community but not resourceful man.He wont learn learn his lesson from any Ghost.He would later be killed by his children and wife.But will not die, only coma and spent months in heaven and hell,accompanied by three Ghost, they will show him the difference of being good and bad, who go to heaven and hell,and later learn how to be good,those those time he is still in hospital his children would have share all of his properties and when he woke up from come to see nothing.
