TOPIC: Poetry that Made an Impact- led By Mike G
What are your favorite poems? They don’t have to rhyme, have a certain meter (do you remember what iambic pentameter is, or care?), or have a certain structure (think sonnets or haikus). A poem can be anything that uses imagery or evokes an emotion. It can be a lyric, like your favorite folk song, rock-n-roll classic, favorite hymn or hip-hop piece. It can be a Shakespeare sonnet, doggerel like Jabberwocky, or child-like like Dr. Seuss’ Cat in the Hat. It can be something you, your lover or a friend wrote. If you wish to share, bring one to three poems, or just sit back enjoy those of others.
