Lesson 3
Lesson 3
Today, we will be reading, studying , and analyzing poems in order to give them a title. This will help us become better at analyzing poems because in order to give a poem a title you need to understand it.
Let's try one together.
Title?
by Valerie Worth
This small
Flat horseshoe
Is sold for
A toy. We are
Told that it
Will pick up pins
And it does, time
After time; later
It lies about,
Getting its red
Paint chipped, being
Offered pins less
Often, until at
Last we leave it
Alone.
