My Favorite Poem So Far ("Mother To Son") by Langston Hughes

My favorite poem so far is "Mother To Son" by Langston Hughes. Unlike other poems I've read, this one was very meaningful. I can actually relate this poem to my real life. Like every mother does, my mother tells me about the struggles she has faced in life all the time.That she doesn't want me to make the same mistakes she did when she was younger. This poem reminds me of those conversation I've had with her. This poem is basically about an African American mother telling her son to not give up in life no mattter what. As she says" Sometimes goin' in the dark/ Where there ain't been no light".  That life for her hasn't been no "crystal stair". Which means that her life wasn't all that fancy like "Cinderella".The mother says how she lived in poverty because she lived in a "Place with no carpets on the floor". The son is probably having some problems in his life thats why his mother is giving him advice. Telling him that she's been through it all.

Imagery Poem (I Still Love You)

I Still Love you

By: Sonam Lama (831)

I Love you so much it hurts

Making me so weak against all hope

But in your chestnut eyes I see the world

Of love and care and so much more

You’re the bright stars I see in the velvet sky because oh my love I think about you all the time.

And when the crimson snow takes its place on your jet black hair

You look like an angel sent from heaven above for sure.

I ‘m the pirate and you’re the flashy gold for no matter what I will always behold.

Oh, what have you done to this poor heart of mine?

It was already yours but you stole it just to make sure.

Now without my heart I fell so lost.

Your rosy heart has withered and it no longer yearns for me.

You have found someone better, much, much better

She is the bright turquoise sky and I’m just the filthy brown ground

But nothing will change no matter what.

For you I will always be the bright emerald leaf so full of life and joy.

You’re so happy with someone else and I am I’m satisfied because nothing’s more important to me than your million dollar smile.

But if darkness ever befalls you just remember

I am the candle who will give you light and melt myself in your eyes.

Object poem(Life Of A Tree)

The shimmiring rain
From the happiest clouds
makes me want to sing out loud
Rain is here! Rain is here
It washes away all my fears
Those hateful snow has left us alone
Now my green colors show
The wonderful fruits can grow
The golden sun can shine
and the leaves on the branches will dance to life
as the birds twitter and tweet
and my greeen beauty is everyone's treat
So as my color of of green and body of brown
can bee seen all around
My life as a tree is grateful somehow
