Most people have mixed emotions about poetry. Odds are, you've studied poetry in many different ways throughout your academic career. You also may have experience with poetry outside of school - from reading nursery rhymes with your parents to participating in or observing an open mic or poetry slam.
Consider your poetry background and write about one specific positive experience you've had with poetry. Write several paragraphs about the experience and why or how it made a positive impact on your life. Be sure to be specific in recalling the poetry or type of poetry involved - titles and poets names are important to recall.
After describing your good experience, write a little about your attitude toward poetry at this point in your life. This does not have to be a long paragraph, just a few sentences about your feelings or emotions when you hear the word "poetry" or what you think about when poetry is mentioned in class.
Due Saturday, June 4.
