So we have started poetry. I think this will be a fun unit. Poetry can express so much emotion and have a lot of meaning behind each word. I really like poetry, usually the love ones because I'm a hopeless romantic. I adore anything that has to do with love. I enjoy seeing people happy and the sappy chick flicks. But poetry can be tricky sometimes. You never really know the absolute meaning of word choice or the entire piece. Poetry allows for many different interpretations of the same thing, which is one of the things I like. You can never really be far off from what the author wanted you to get out of it.
Poetry can be very calming and beautiful. You can express feeling easily because there is no real straight forward way to write it. Its pretty much just a way to express feelings without structure. I don't enjoy when the point of the poem isn't super clear. Then it is harder to understand what the author wants to express and it makes it harder to annotate. But I am looking forward to this unit and hope to learn new things abut poetry.
