when our spirits need a lift.
A friend is someone we treasure
for our friendship is a gift.
A friend is someone who fills our lives
with beauty, joy, and grace.
And makes the whole world we live in
a better and happier place.

In my opinion, I really like this poem, because the poet shows advantages about the freindship deeply. Furthurmore, the poet uses many rhymes, so I like it more.

and I keep expecting some enormous

black-and-white B-movie Cyclops

to appear at the edge of the horizon,

to come striding over the ocean

and drag me from my kitchen

to the deep cave that flickered

into my young brain one Saturday

at the Baronet Theater where I sat helpless

between my older brothers, pumped up

on candy and horror—that cave,

the litter of human bones

gnawed on and flung toward the entrance,

I can smell their stench as clearly

as the bacon fat from breakfast. This

is how it feels to lose it—

not sanity, I mean, but whatever it is

that helps you get up in the morning

and actually leave the house

on those days when it seems like death

in his brown uniform

is cruising his panel truck

of packages through your neighborhood.

I think of a friend’s voice

on her answering machine—

Hi, I’m not here—

the morning of her funeral,

the calls filling up the tape

and the mail still arriving,

and I feel as afraid as I was

after all those vampire movies

when I’d come home and lie awake

all night, rigid in my bed,

unable to get up

even to pee because the undead

were waiting underneath it;

if I so much as stuck a bare

foot out there in the unprotected air

they’d grab me by the ankle and pull me

under. And my parents said there was

nothing there, when I was older

I would know better, and now

they’re dead, and I’m older,

and I know better.

I don't know how it means clearly, but I try to understand it. I think this poetry is interesting. It's about the life that is temporary( I understand like that). In this poetry, there are similitudes. Sometimes I can understand the real meaning, sometimes I can't. So,It's challenging for me

sorry,teacher I think POETRY hard for me, but I try to under stand it more and more.

one thing.

You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.

Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.

If suddenly
you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you.

If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners
that passes through my life,
and you decide
to leave me at the shore
of the heart where I have roots,
remember
that on that day,
at that hour,
I shall lift my arms
and my roots will set off
to seek another land.

But
if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower
climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine.
.

This poem is very romantic. I think the poet is falling in love with someone while he was writing. and I really like this because he love with someone romantically but he have concious. He wasn't too obssesed

Improve his shining tail,
And pour the waters of the Nile
On every golden scale!
How cheerfully he seems to grin,
How neatly spreads his claws,
And welcomes little fishes in,
With gently smiling jaws!
.
.
.
I like this poem because when I read it, I can imagin how the crocodile are and iteasy to understand. There are assonances at the end of the line, it seem musical.

Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favour fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

I like this poem because poet choose the word that have contrasting meaning.

Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date.

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimmed;

But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st,
Nor shall death brag thou wand’rest in his shade,
When in eternal lines to Time thou grow’st.

So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
.
.

I like this poem because there are many alliterations and assonances. And this poem's used pentaiambic so it make this poem like a melody and the meaning is wonderful.

Thou art more lovely and more temperate:

Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.

This poem make me smile.I think the girl is so beautiful, lovely, and mild. Persona thinks summer is good but she is better. He has passion on her a lot, so I love this, it's like pure love. In this Poem, sometimes it makes me confused becaused word order, but it's simple and I understand it. I love it! ]]> 2022-10-04 13:45:26 UTC https://padlet.com/tongkandaxx/an9h0k33d7bbwi3v/wish/2325724405 Sonnet 116 by William Shakespeare tongkandaxx https://padlet.com/tongkandaxx/an9h0k33d7bbwi3v/wish/2326217351 Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments; love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O, no, it is an ever-fixèd mark,
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand’ring bark,
Whose worth’s unknown, although his heighth be taken.
Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle’s compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.
.
.
.
When I read it at the first time, I feel uncomfortable. But when we read it again and again, I think this pem is wonderful. Because poet describe Love is beautiful through metaphor. For example, It is the star to every wand’ring bark, it make me imagine about love more. ]]> 2022-10-04 17:51:18 UTC https://padlet.com/tongkandaxx/an9h0k33d7bbwi3v/wish/2326217351 Love Sonnet 29 by William Shakespeare tongkandaxx https://padlet.com/tongkandaxx/an9h0k33d7bbwi3v/wish/2326235233 When, in disgrace with fortune and men’s eyes,
I all alone beweep my outcast state
And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries
And look upon myself and curse my fate,
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featur’d like him, like him with friends possess’d,
Desiring this man’s art and that man’s scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least;
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
Haply I think on thee, and then my state,
Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven’s gate;
For thy sweet love remember’d such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings.

I really love this poem. Because this poem start feeling at the down state and gradually climbed to the peak state at the end. I think it's very woderful. The meaning make me feel good because persona didn't want anything but want someone is being beside him, It's kind, lovely, and warm. ]]> 2022-10-04 18:01:02 UTC https://padlet.com/tongkandaxx/an9h0k33d7bbwi3v/wish/2326235233 “How do I love thee? Let me count the ways (Sonnets from the Portuguese 43)” by Elizabeth Barrett Browning tongkandaxx https://padlet.com/tongkandaxx/an9h0k33d7bbwi3v/wish/2328741229 How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height

My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight

For the ends of being and ideal grace.

I love thee to the level of every day’s

Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.

I love thee freely, as men strive for right;

I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.

I love thee with the passion put to use

In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.

I love thee with a love I seemed to lose

With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,

Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,

I shall but love thee better after death.

The meaning of this poem make my heart enlarged. Persona love his woman a lot. It's make me smile. And the poet use repetition word, I think it can mske reader to remember poem more easily, and I think it's beautiful.

They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first, the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse’s arms.
Then the whining schoolboy, with his satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress’ eyebrow. Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon’s mouth. And then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lined,
With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slippered pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side;
His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
For his shrunk shank, and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
.

The poet compare the life to stage. It's wonderful and atractive. And there are a lot of alliteration and assonance, It's made be a melody like a sonf. I'm impressed more.]]> 2022-10-07 06:02:52 UTC https://padlet.com/tongkandaxx/an9h0k33d7bbwi3v/wish/2330527077 O never say that I was false of heart by William Shakespeare tongkandaxx https://padlet.com/tongkandaxx/an9h0k33d7bbwi3v/wish/2330543055 O, never say that I was false of heart,
Though absence seemed my flame to qualify.
As easy might I from my self depart
As from my soul which in thy breast doth lie.
That is my home of love; if I have ranged,
Like him that travels I return again,
Just to the time, not with the time exchanged,
So that myself bring water for my stain.
Never believe though in my nature reigned
All frailties that besiege all kinds of blood,
That it could so preposterously be stained
To leave for nothing all thy sum of good;
For nothing this wide universe I call
Save thou, my rose, in it thou art my all
.

When I read this poem, I fell warm in my heart.Persona love his love, although they are on seperate. And this poem is iambix pentameter so it's melodic. I love it! coo'!
