Write an essay that analyzes the theme of a poem. Use paraphrases, examples, and quotations from the poem as evidence to support the interpretation of theme.
It doesn't matter what poem it is on and it doesn't say how long but should be a decent 1 paragraph.
I am not going to give you an essay but here is how to write it: 1. pick a poem that interests you and you can talk about. if its one that you can just say 1 sentence about, dont choose it 2. first make an outline. work on your thesis statement, and write down the main idea of your poem 3. write this all in sentence form, edit it, and you got yourself a good and decent essay!
"Hate Poem" by Juli Sheehan and Is "My Team Ploughing?" by A. E. Housman are both pretty fun and short reads. One an example of a modern, no name poet, and another of a big time Victorian Era poet. Just pick one and write down your immediate reaction. Pick excerpts of you like and explain why you like them. Your fondness for anything follows some rationale, so, in the third person, support that rationale. You will have more than enough to write and I have no doubt that you'll exceed one paragraph. Hope this helped.
