The author RUDYARD KIPLING
The connections that I made to the poem were when people give up on you never give up on yourself.
The poem is organized with four stanzas each with eight lines and the rhyming pattern is AAAABCBC ABABCDCD ABABCDCD ABABCDCD
The poetic devices are personification when it says "don't make dreams your master" because you can't make dreams your master because dreams aren't alive, hyperbole because when it says "keep your head when all about you are losing theirs" because no one can actually lose their head unless it gets chopped off by someone.
The tone of the poem makes me feel to stay calm in hard situations and don't let people try to change the way you are.
I think the author wants his son to think about believing in himself and that they are still family no matter what.
