Fun!

I really enjoyed our last class! I find that I like Wallace Steven's poems a lot! I actually even copied one of the ones from the book and taped it to my wall at home; its just so beautiful and interesting. Some of his poems, to be honest, like the black bird one do not really hold my interest that well, but I really do enjoy the way he writes. I love how he uses colors in his poem; it really brings the image home and connects with a part of my muse that surprises me. Writing in his format, I was able to write in a very new and exciting way. I was surprised at the end on how my poem turned out. Usually, at least for me, all my poems have a similar feel and voice to them. Basing the poem on Steven's really transformed my writing and I am very pleased with how it turned out.
