Writing a Poem

Today in class, we talked about writing poems. The main thing that i took from today's lesson was how you could use an extended metaphor to construct a poem. This was very helpful to me because i was able to make a connection on the metaphors to the poems easier, and it made constructing and dissecting poems easier. When it came down to writing my own poem, I used an extended metaphor and it made it easier to form a quality poem worth reading.
