Our Favorite Poems

Choose one of your favorite poems to share in our blog. It can be a poem that you wrote, or a poem that you love to read. Write why you like the poem and what emotion the poem evokes in you. Comment on the poet’s use of poetry devices. Does the poet use repitition, rhythm, rhyme, alliteration or onomatopoeia in the poem? Do you see any figurative language such as similes and metaphors or does it evoke emotion? What do you feel when you read it? Write what you would like to try using in your own poems that the author has used to create the images in his/her poem, or write about any other literary devices you would like to try.

Take your time and think about the poem you choose. Be sure to reread and edit your comments.

It’s such fun to share our learning!
