Poem Ask me ...
The short poem Ask me by William Stafford was nothing of which I expected from reading the title. Before reading the poem I didn't really have much expectations, I just thought that it will be a simple poem about nature or life in a forest. What I liked most about the poem is that it still had a lot of meaning and understanding even though it was short. There was no dislikes in this poem, everything flowed well reading and comprehending it. I would recommend it to a friend because I feel this poem is very relatable to teens and adults.

Yes and same here.The poem is giving a very different feeling then what I feel about the title. For the title "Ask Me" Stafford uses a common language that we use in everyday life, so I thought the poem must shows its ideas or points directly. However, Stafford does it in exactly the opposite way.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you I thought this poem had a lot to do with the title and I thought it was going to be different.however I really like this poem because it's good for teens and adults also it has a of quotes in here that would help us relate to ourselves.
