Good Morning, T'zhuja. "Poetry is your canvas", I like this quote. it is a brilliant way of looking at the the literary form and also an easy attention grabber to use for future students to encourage them in either reading poetry or writing it. In reading your post I liked the fact that you highlighted that while poetry is a magical tool to help a writer express themselves, you pointed out the different devices that one can use to propel their writing making it have more impact. additionally, the incorporation of the fact that there are different types of poetry styles. Before our class it was never apparent to me that there were so many, thank you for revisiting those again. Poetry is so dynamic and like you said it has a way to "strike a cord with persons" and so, in teaching poetry I understand that I cannot be lazy in teaching it, I need to have impact.
