Please Need Help... Fan & Medal & a Testimonial... How does communication change us? Read the poem below and answer the question above. The Writer By. Richard Wilbur

OpenStudy (needhelpp101):

In her room at the prow of the house Where light breaks, and the windows are tossed with linden, My daughter is writing a story. I pause in the stairwell, hearing From her shut door a commotion of typewriter-keys Like a chain hauled over a gunwale. Young as she is, the stuff Of her life is a great cargo, and some of it heavy: I wish her a lucky passage. But now it is she who pauses, As if to reject my thought and its easy figure. A stillness greatens, in which The whole house seems to be thinking, And then she is at it again with a bunched clamor Of strokes, and again is silent. I remember the dazed starling Which was trapped in that very room, two years ago; How we stole in, lifted a sash And retreated, not to affright it; And how for a helpless hour, through the crack of the door, We watched the sleek, wild, dark And iridescent creature Batter against the brilliance, drop like a glove To the hard floor, or the desk-top, And wait then, humped and bloody, For the wits to try it again; and how our spirits Rose when, suddenly sure, It lifted off from a chair-back, Beating a smooth course for the right window And clearing the sill of the world. It is always a matter, my darling, Of life or death, as I had forgotten. I wish What I wished you before, but harder.

communication changes us in many ways, it helps us to understand others and there problems, it helps us show emotions on how we feel, without communication we wouldn't be able to do things we do today

OpenStudy (zoeeh127):

Communication changes us a lot for example people with little communication are uncomfortable with talking to others and are more likely to be happy with activities that can be done by oneself. People with lots of communication are more likely to be more out going and can learn to enjoy things with others. So basically comunication can influence your personality and sometimes even your lifestyle.
