The first posts I read were Alora's. Her "I Am" poem was composed of very short phrases, but even so, her word choice was phenomenal and she managed to leave a clear portrait in the reader's mind. The same is true for her "Seashells" story. Her word choice brought it to life, and I could absolutely envision and related to what she was writing. In Christian's poem, the various metaphors he used stood out to me. I thought they lent it a very poetic feel in his descriptions of himself, which was wonderful. The metaphor of himself to the baobab tree particularly stuck out at me.
Thanks for doing this, Madalyn! I know your classmates will appreciate your thoughtful feedback.
