Poetry (Oranges by Gary Soto)

Using the poem Oranges by Gary Soto write a scene that fills in the background knowledge of a character or that adds a new scene to the story or poem (two pages). The scene must seek to employ the style of the author and connect to elements of plot from the story. It can come before the story, in the story’s middle, or after the story. After your scene, include a well-developed paragraph-length analysis that explains what elements of the author’s style you aimed to emulate and why you chose to write the specific “fill-in” scene.
