In preparation for writing your paper, take time to analyze and interpret each poem, considering the following questions: What is the poem about? What is the mood of the poem? Does the mood of the poem change from the beginning to the end? What impact do mood, imagery and simile/metaphor have on you and the poem? Does this poem appeal to you? Why or why not?
