Initial Response

For the main part of this assignment, you are going to write your own poem. You should choose a shorter type of poem such as a Sonnet, Limerick, Haiku, or Acrostic. Although we would enjoy a longer poem from you like Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, we likely would not have time to write that much!

Choose a type of poem that you find interesting. Describe that type of poem in terms of structure, length, etc. You can use the definition from one of the resources above, but make sure to cite it.

Then, write a poem of that type that reflects something about you. It can, for example, be a career interest, a personal hobby, or a social issue that is important to you. Remember, to consider using some of the literary devices such as similes, alliteration, or onomatopoeia in your poem. Those literary devices were defined in Module 1 and 2 of the course.
