What Poetry Class left me behind,

Throughout the Poetry Class, I had great opportunities to learn as well as to write poems both inside and outside of the class. As a class, I was able to create my own poems even though I have never written one in my life. I not only learned about specific poets and poetry but also wrote creative poems, including "tomato" poem, "When I am 2%" poem, and blackout poem. I learned how to express my thoughts and imagination without any embarrassment to share my ideas though I felt nervous as I read my "Walgreen" poem but was able to accomplish due to the classmate's encouraging claps and cheer:).

Also I realized that having blog, personal writing space, to share my ideas and opinions was neat project to do. I always wanted to create a blog where I can introduce movies, musicals, music, or culture; share my opinions and critics on books; and talk about specific events. In my blog, I was able to share wide variety of topics- Great Depression to Super Junior. I also enjoyed promoting our blog- sharing blog posts with my friends and people whom I do not know and receiving helpful comments.

I, throughout the course, not only learned history or techniques of poetry but also received chance to become a poet myself. Poetry is unlimited: Poets can share and write their poems whatever their minds tell them to write!
