ok sooo
Im doing this poem for english and the way its written is throwing me!
It switchs between 1st 2nd and 3rd person i think!! i need help!!
(This isnt the whole poem its just parts if it helps heres the whole thing.)

Soo to me i see it like.
Red is second person.
Bold black is first
and third is purple underline...
am i right or?? ive confused myself..

Australia takes her pen in hand,
To write a line to you,
To let you fellows understand,
How proud we are of you.

We're not State children any more
We're all Australians now!
And now we know what nations know
And feel what nations feel.

We have, through what you boys have done,
A history of our own.

For English, Scotch, and Irish-bred,
They're all Australians now!

Yes, not a very vague request at all, "I need help!"

More specific please

Perhaps the switching between 1st, 2nd and 3rd person is all a technique.
