Poem That Matters

Please note: For this assignment I ask that you DO NOT use a song.

Now that you've completed The Great Poetry Hunt, it's time to share some of your findings! You need to post ONE of your favorite poems that you found on your blog. You're going to go a little above and beyond just posting though.

On your post, you need to include:

1. The title and entire poem

2. Brief biographical information about the poet

3. Brief explanation about why the poem matters to you (Why does it matter? What, specifically, about it moves you? Does it remind you of anything?)

4. Include some kind of visual that captures the feeling of the poem

You can see an example here.
