Prompt: Which aspect of creating a poem do you enjoy the most? Tell what it is and explain why. 

Prompt Response:

I'm not too sure, I doubt there was much of anything to enjoy when I'm trying to figure out how I should make it or having trouble putting things into words. I guess it is fun to have a poem that rhymes and sounds good, I also think its a nice idea that you can take any random object and use it to connect with the theme of your poem.

Summary:

Today we were supposed to start on our poems, Mr. Rease went over a presentation on figurative language with us. Showing what kind they are and what their definitions are or how they can be used in poems. Afterwards he would give us the time to brainstorm ideas for our draft, for the rest of the class time people were planning and writing. I had trouble just like some of my classmates, to make or start a poem, the guys next to me were talking to Mr. Rease on how to make their poems.

Reflection:

I learned that I definitely needed to work on my poem skills and that it doesn't always need to be rhyming, while also learning that a poem can hold many figurative language methods. There are many topics that a poem can be under and I learned how simple it can sometimes be, depending how one does it.
