Ballad Poems Day 2

Bellringer:  

Write an 8 line, rhyming poem with 4 line couplets about the above picture, or something that inspires you about the above picture.

Recap: We analyzed two poems today, "The Ballad of the Landlord" by Langston Hughes, and "O Captain! My Captain!" by Walt Whitman. I wanted you to note the difference in meter compared to the previous poems we read.

We will also be taking a quiz on the literary terms that have been shared with you tomorrow. Please be prepared.

Hang on to your ballad poems/songs that I asked you for today. We will review them tomorrow.

Have a nice night!
