Assignment #2

There are many challenges in understanding
The many ways that people express themselves
Poetry is just one
And often difficult to comprehend
So we can only guess
While the author can maybe know
And we can only read,
So they can only show,
And when we read poetry
We need to not judge in our possible misunderstanding
We only need to relate as best we can,
And read on,
To enjoy.

  1. I like this Vienna, especialy the two lines; "So we can only guess, While the author can maybe know". It's very true. Good job. :)

  2. I like this, especially the "we need only relate as best we can." For it is so true. Most of us will read a poem based on our own experiences rather than the experiences of the poet.
