Ok, so I'm not exactly a poetry person normally, but Ms Powell has us do this project whenever we study poetry. its a poetry anthology, where we choose some of our favorite poems that we have studied and we do some sort of artistic representation of it. I love doing this project because by the end of Ms Powells poetry units I usually totally love the poetry we have gone over. For my anthology I chose a few of Shakespeare's sonnets, and a couple poems by Sir Thomas Wyatt the elder.
I absolutely love all of these poems, but I think Shakespeare's sonnet 116 is my favorite, I even memorized it. it is a pretty awesome description of love...and I just love it. Forget not yet is my other favorite. its actually really sad, but an amazing poem too. So I don't know, maybe I don't really hate poetry, I guess I just need to take the time to actually read it.
