Small Town with One Road, by Gary Soto

A. Title: The title of this poem shows that it is in a rural country town with a road, probably in an unknown place. For people, they have very few people and very few free time. B. Interpretation: We can be here. This is a valley and its highway, a rabbit can not pass by, but the children go through. They jumped on the store feeling their sweetness on their tongue. They are focused on enjoyment. They fall from their palms to pay for the candies they ate on their way home. There are many dogs, cats, and chickens at home.
