If poetry response

 The author of this poem is RUDYARD KIPLING.

The connections that I, made to the title was if something happens out of the blue or suddenly to you but you don't expect it to happen.

The poem was organised like 4 stanzas each with 8 lines and the rhyming pattern is AAAABCBC ABABCDCD ABABCDCD ABABCDCD.

The tone of the poem for me was when you read this poem it feels like it's the boys dad or mum saying advice to their son so that he knows what to do when he gets older I think that because it says “And which is more you’ll be a man my son!”

The personification and hyperbole. There is Hyperbole when it says "to keep your head when all are losing theirs" And "You can meet with T


riumph and Disaster". There is personification when it says "Don't deal in lies" and "can dream and not make your dreams your master" last of all "treat those two imposters just the same".

The meaning of the poem for me was when your parents are giving you advice about something and YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION.
