Poetry

When I hear or see the word poetry I think, oh great! The poetry that I have dealt with throughout my high school years the most is poems/sonnettes from Shakespeare and other poets that make it hard to grasp the "message" in their work. When I found out we were doing poetry in this class I was a little discouraged at first. However, I'm sure the poetry we read can't be that bad; I mean it is children's literature. I'm kind of looking forward to it actually because Dr. Robinson said on Wednesday that we would be reading the "fun" poetry on Friday. Whatever poetry we do read and discuss the next couple of class periods I'm sure will most likely be fun and enjoyable. And if not I'm sure we can make it be, especially if it has to do with children!
