Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou

This poem is amazing because it makes every woman to feel pretty and make them proud of their body and also to says thanks because I am woman.  Being a  woman is a great thing because every man admire us and we could have a little creature inside us but some times every woman forgets about that and make them feel less than who they are so we never have to feel ugly just because we are woman.

Those Winter Sundays by Robert Hayden

I loved this poem because it made me think that I never tell thanks to my parents for all the things they gave me even though I do not feel I deserve them.  I always thought those things were part of their obligations as parents but they only give me those things because they want me to make me happy but the real things that should make me happy are all the smiles at the morning for me having a nice day or them waking up early and giving me a good morning kiss.

I love my parents!

What is Poetry?

Almost every teenager think that poetry is the boring lesson in which you read crazy and sentimental guys that always talk about girls they love but for me poetry is the spontaneous way to express feelings like love, hate or it could be happiness.  It is a nice way to tell your feelings to the other person and to them understand what you are passing by.  So now that poetry it coulb be in a free way why not try to make one?

Night by Elie Wiesel

The truth is that this book did not surprised me or liked me so much as the others because is the typical story of Jews that were kept in a concentration camp separated of his family, as Ann Frank.  The thing that I like it the most is the title because is just one word and could give you the description of what the book is going to talk about.  This is not an original theme but is nice to know that Elie Wiesle, the author, could scape from the camp with life.

The Masque of the Red Death by Edgar Allan Poe

I totally liked the message of this story because is the truth "if you try to scape from nature, nature will find you". All the time I have think that detiny exists and this story is about it because Prospero tries to go away of death but it was marked on his destiny to died so that is what happens at the end of the story.  All the environment of the story is of terror and mystery because it has dark colors and in far places.  Also I liked the fact that Mr. Narchi told us that it seems that the Red Death was using a mask but the truth is that it was not using a mask. I liked it beacuse it ends not as you expected because you expected that Prospero lived and it had a happy ending but it was not like that.

Allegories

Allegory is a group of symbols that together creates a message. I think that an allegory makes so much easier a complete idea to understand.  The allegory includes all the characteristics and meanings in one image for all the society to understand it.  The most common example of an allegory is the heart but not the one that is inside our body is the one that expresses feelings and emotions, that symbol every person in the world knows it and know what it means if someone draw it for you or gives you a chocolate box in that form.

Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut

I definitely liked this story because it made me retract about thinking of a total equal world because it would not make every people special.  Sometimes I wanted that every single person could have the same opportunities and characteristics because I felt that some persons have everything I have wished for and I do not, but now I think that only for being me I am special and I have everything.  I think that it would be the worst thing that you have to be handicap because of being the most intelligent, the most beautiful or every achievement that the persons have. No one most feel inferior because of not having what others have, enjoy what is yours.
