Parting Words

Sitting here putting the final touches on my portfolio and reflection, it occurred to me that i really have accomplished and achieved a lot by taking this course. looking back on the first poem we wrote in class, and the first muse exercise we did i really do see a lot of growth. and even though i was apprehensive at first to the idea of taking a poetry writing class, i'm really glad i did. now i can express myself on a whole different level and i can really appreciate the beauty of language. so aside from the knowledge i've gained in terms of understanding the fundamentals of poetry, i feel like i've grown a lot as a writer in general.
