... the surroundings that she is in. With the data provided, we can tell that the grandmother goes from not wanting to go to Florida, to anxious to go, and in the end, I felt as if she went off the deep end.

The action in the entire story surrounds and normally begins with something the grandmother has said or done. At the very beginning of the story, she starts off by stating that she does not want to go to Florida. She would rather go to east Tennessee and tried anything she could to change Bailey’s mind (Page 4 ...

... coyness, lady, were no crime.� The third line contains no pauses and runs directly into the fourth, so that the rhyme runs opposite the rhythm of the couplet.

These last few lines are the lines in which the speaker talks about how the two should seize the day and live life to the fullest.

And so, I should conclude that our existence is a truth, and may be the only truth, that we should find its certainty.
