Can you please help me write a poem analysis?
Suggestions to help you analyze the poem: 1. Paraphrase - Put the poem in your own words. Putting the poem in your own words will give you the surface meaning of the poem. 2. Interpret the Poem - Look at the words of the poem. Consider the the following three things about each word in the poem: a. Sound b. denotation - the literal definition of the word; the definition you find in a dictionary. c. connotation - the associated or secondary meaning of a word or expression ; feelings which a word commonly suggests. For example, the word "home" denotes a place where one lives. The word "home" connotes privacy, intimacy or coziness. 3. Examine individual elements in the poem: a. theme - the central idea in a piece of writing b. tone - the writer's attitude toward the subject c. structure - the form or organization a writer uses for his poem. d. rhyme - the similarity or likeness of sound existing between two words. e. rhythm - the ordered or free occurrences of sound in poetry. f. repetition - the repeating of a word or phrase within a poem to create a sense of rhythm. g. figurative language h. the speaker i. the occasion These are all the topics you need to research before you write your analysis/essay. Pick the three that you feel most comfortable writing about. These three topics will form the basis for the supporting paragraphs in your analysis/essay. Here is the basic outline of an essay: 1. Introduction 2. Thesis Statement - a statement of the main idea of the essay. 3. Supporting Paragraph #1 4. Supporting Paragraph#2 5. Supporting Paragraph #3 6. Conclusion - a general summation of your essay and a statement of what you learned from your essay.
Why are free verse poems effective?
Basically, poetry (specifically free verse) is like a person that "paints" imagery through words. A free verse poem does not rhyme, nor does it have a rhyme scheme. I, for some odd reason, have always had trouble writing free-verse poetry. But if you listen to a spoken word piece, you will see that it is somewhat like a free-verse poem. Instead of being a free flowing, non-rhythmic style of creating imagery to reflect on what your chosen topic is, a spoken word poem is basically a poem with a rhyme scheme, pattern and a bit of repetition. Free verse poems are basically effective because of the fact that they're basically free-flowing. They flow together, but they're not crazy and all over the place. They're organized, but not in any particular order. But, that's all I have on free-verse. And normally when a free versed poem is most effective, it's when it's advertising something or trying to persuade or prove a point. And, they do work.
How do I come up with titles for my poems?
When I write it's because I'm thinking about someone or something or notice something that catches my attention and I'll just start writing or dictate what I feel into my phone. 90% of what I write isn't edited. I name them after the subject and theme of the poem, or what caused me to write it in the first place. For example one day I was thinking about a few friends who have a hard time finding the good in things when the cloudy sky caught my attention. They would only see a gloomy say ahead and lower their feelings instead of something to raise their feelings and cheer them up. This is the result:GREY OR BLUEI sit and watch the clouds go by Grey and white spots in the sky Little bits of blue about Let the rays of sun shine out Your spirit's really like the sky Bits of grey and blue The grey is when you want to cry The blue your love shines through The sun peeks out now and then Through the spots of blue And its rays warm what they touch And they are touching you So if your life is like a cloud And your spirits grey Don't forget the patch of blue For that spot is really you
How can I learn to write and read poetry (15 years old)?
I am happy that you are interested in poetry.Obviously, writing poetry can only be possible if you start reading poetry first. So develop a reading habit.Choose poems which connect with you. I would suggest:First and formost, read BLUE LIPSTICK by John Grandits(One of my favourites).I am sure your English literature Textbooks too would contain really interesting ones.After reading and understanding, I would suggest you to actually think of the topics discussed and expressed in the poems. Try to understand the poet's or poetess's perspective. That, trust me, is the best part. You have no idea what a simple poem can do to you. This way, you don't lose interest too and gradually develop your taste in poetry.After reading for a good lot of time, you'll start to write. Why you write, what you write, what made you write, how will you find the words to express your thoughts and feelings, you'll know.I hope you have a great time. :)

How do I form a thesis statement for a literary analysis essay?
Your question is a little vague in some respects. On the one hand you mention a thesis and then you use the word essay. Two different things.I’m going to assume that you need to write an anaysis essay on some pieces of literary work.My thought is that you adapt and use the model I suggested in another answer.IDADECIntroduction, Assumptions, Diagram, Explanation, ConclusionEXCEPT that in your essay, you substitute Examples to Discuss in place of a Diagram.In your essay, you will still need an introduction and some assumptions. And you will need a conclusion.Your Introduction will be to introduce the general topic of your essay. And refer to the elements of literature that you intend to discuss. Literature has far too many different elements to discuss them all. So choose the ones you want to discuss. The ones you know most about, of course.Your Assumptions would consider what particular element type(s) of literary principles and methodologies you have chosen to discuss . And why.Your Examples would specify which literary examples you have chosen to illustrate the arguments and discussion in your paper to follow. And why you chose them. . Your why here would merely be an extension of your assumptions.Your Explanation will be a detailed comparing and contrasting of the various elements you have cited in your assumptions. Using your chosen examples as illustrations to compare and contrast your discussion points.Your conclusion will be a drawing together of the points you have made. and your opinion about them.One final piece of advice. DO NOT download and copy /paste from the Internet. Most of the stuff you will access from the Internet is someone else’s opinion. Not based in truth or fact. Probably not as learned as your own.Do yourself a favour. Go to a library and do some resarch.I am aware of more than one student who did just copy and paste. Didn’t even bother to delete the browser references. Or the links to other articles. Then wondered why the Professor rejected the work without marking it.
How do you start writing poetry?
First of all, with poetry there is really no best way. Yes, you could start reading poetry from the greats and from different eras and learn all there is to learn about the technical aspects of stanzas and line lengths and metaphors and what not. Yes, you could go about it like anybody starts learning a new thing, just like a subject at school.However, if you read up on most famous writers and poets, very few actually bothered learning the technical intricacy of writing. Grammar matters of course, and so does your average reading list because what you read eventually forms the linguistic pattern that will decide what you write. Knowing to write well is perhaps the first basic step in writing poetry. Having mastered sentence structures and having developed a decent sized vocabulary, the next step would probably be rather simple. It is just about feeling. FEEL, not the pinterest version of photoshopped feelings but real , concrete yet indescribable feelings. Look at the world as if you loved it desperately or hated it with a vengeance. Extreme emotions are often what trigger poetic thought because then symbolism, similes and personification become not mere definitions but names you can give to the words your mind throws up in the upheaval of an emotional experience. Fall in love and be rejected. Use your disappointments, even your joys. Poetry is after all symbolic writing that aims to deliver the emotional content of the Poet's thoughts on something particular. If you can feel, you can see the underlying subtleties in something ordinarily banal. Now take those feelings and start writing about them. When you can make these writings rhyme or view your musings not as the written word but as art that you have created without caring for its acceptance or recognition, then perhaps you would be well on your way to becoming that dying rebel called the poet.
