For each week of poetry, the 3rd and 4th, choose one poem per day and write a 500 word analysis of the poem. Look at things such as tone, meaning, symbolism, alliteration, metaphors, similes, tone and poet's background. Make sure to cite text from the poem. I am looking or literary analysis not a summary; if using any both in text as as a work cited page. Both of these are due on via drop box.
