 Prompt: When I last had to write a poem it was for an assignment. The writing process for me was very hard as I had to put words that rhymed into it. Although it was hard I found myself finishing before the due date which was the end of class. Unfortunately looking bad I ´ m not proud of the result of my poem but for that time period I was definitely proud of it.

Summary: Discussions on poems and a introduction to the poem about a poet and acrobat comparisons.

Reflection: Poems are artworks that require thought and thorough thought processes into it. It's good to know various vocabulary words to aid in writing poems.

Prompt: Think about the word or phrase you find yourself using the most right now. What is it, what does it mean, and why has it become part of your everyday vocabulary? Explain when you typically use it and what your choice of this word or phrase might reveal about you.
