Poems, Poems, Poems.

This past Thursday, September 14tth 2012 we read two poems in class. They were titled "Where I'm From", and "Courageous Dream's Concern". I actually didn't mind reading these poems, especially the poem about Detroit, Michigan because I'm from Michigan. I really like how these poems did not just describe where they are from in a boring way, they tried to get your senses involved, they tried to bring about certain smells, sounds, tastes, and sights. You could really get an image in your head of the place, it was almost like you were there.  Another reason I really liked reading these poems is because it made me think of where I'm from and all the things that I would associate with my hometown. So when we got the assignment to go along with this I was excited, and in a way sad because having to think all about my hometown makes me miss it even more!
