Introduction to poetry

I chose to do the type of poetry I did for certain reasons for each one. I chose to do The Dusty Old Picture because that picture is from a long time ago, or so it seems. I wrote that poem because it reminds me of happier times of my childhood when my parents were together. I wrote the poem about sight because I don't like how people think that you can only see with your eyes because that's not true. People that are blind use their hands, feet, and imagination to see so I thought it would be nice to write a poem about that. I wrote about redemption because reading this book it seems like redemption is a major theme so I created an ode to show how important it is. I chouse Amir for the Bio poem because he's the main character, and he's kind of a complicated character so I thought a poem might help make him less complex. The ballad I just highlighted some of the points that I thought were important in the novel. For the found poem I picked a passage that I thought has real significance to an event in the novel. The passage I took for it is right before Hassan get's raped because it explains why Assef does that, and what Amir has going through his head before, and during while he's witnessing that happen for the topic of your choice poem For the topic of your choice poem I wrote a free verse poem about forgetting because Amir wants to try, and forget what he did to Hassan throughout the novel. Lastly for my final reflection I wrote a free verse poem about Hassan, and Amir, but it's mostly about Amir, and how he goes through life with the regret of what he did to Hassan.
