4+ What Is Poetry?

For me…

Poetry is a short story about oneself

5+ “Eyes That Last I Saw In Tears”

The poem “Eyes that last I saw in tears” by T.S. Eliot is about death. This poem talks about a person seeing someone else die. “At the door of death’s other kingdom (11).” This quote is important because it has a good personification. This quote is also important in the poem because the quote talks about death and how you can just die in an instant, the poem is excellent and something other people will want to read because it talks about something natural that eventually everybody will go through that. So, the poem explores death and loosing people in a blink of an eye.

9+ My First KissHe runs his fingers in my hair.I close my eyesAs he strokes my cheek.He wraps his arms around me.I feel like I can flyBecause he’ll be there to catch meWhen I reach the skyAnd come back down to earth.I feel how he gets closer.He takes another step towards me.Just before I can open my eyes,He lingers with his sweet lips a sweet kiss.His lips touch mine,And I feel like a birdSet free for the first time.I don’t count the minutes.When its over,He looks at my eyesAnd says “I love you”.
