Why do we associate beauty with physical features? The bloody glow of the sunrise, Is the same shade of our hearts. The way we rise, Is the same as we fall. But when we fall; We must be reminded, The sun will set, but it will always rise higher. See yourself in the ocean, Unstable, […]

In this previous project, we were asked to look into a career in writing that interests us. I chose a poet! We were then asked to identify a type of writing that the career is responsible for. For my career (poet), they are obviously responsible for poetry. I went into detail about the different elements […]

Throughout this period during learning cycle three, I have looked at two different types of writing: fiction and non-fiction.

Poetry can sound like simple sentences, but they have to make sense and work well together. I have created several drafts of my own original poem called, “Why is it So Hard”. I have […]
