Poetry is meant to be listen too, not read
I really enjoyed the lessons about poetry. I love the poets ability to master language, and make sense to human emotions. This is a talent that I truly envy. For as long as I can remember I have loved poetry. I spent hours when I was younger searching blogs, reading quotes and poems just because symbolism and diction is so beautiful. I also love music, and am one of those people who love a song just because of the lyrics. That is why I loved the incorporation of "Loose Yourself" into the lesson. I understood the meaning behind the song before I listened to it as a poem, but it did not impact me the same. As a song it motivates me, but as a poem it brought chills to my back. I loved the poem "Those Winter Sundays" by Robert Harden. It truly depicted the indifference we feel to our parents when we are young. I know now I appreciate everything my parents do for me, but back then, it was never enough.
