Memoir as Nonfiction and Poetry

Flip through your textbook, browse the Internet, or search your brain and find one poem that describes a scene, emotion, place, event, or experience to which you can relate. Go to the discussions area and post the title and author of the poem. Then, in two to three sentences, explain what you feel the poem is saying and what it means to you. Return to the topic several times over the next few days to read your coursemates' posts. Reply to at least two of them, making sure to ask questions and encourage further conversation.
