I've read a few other poems by Peter Cole, and I feel like most of Peter's poems have that "lyrical attitude" as you said in slide four. I feel like the lyrical attitude in his poems is his way of showing small details about what he is thinking overall and it's a common concept in his poetry.

The description of Cole having a lyrical attitude really helps me to be able to see the emotion of this poem in a new way, and evokes deeper emotions in me!

Your singing of the emphasis in Cole's poem shows the meaning of the poem, and the melodies and harmonies contribute to the tone of the piece overall. The allusion to the Bible specifically Isaac, definitely shapes the tone of the poem to a darker more tragic meaning.

I really love how well you capture the tone and mood of the poem in your music and it sounds really beautiful

The poem had a melancholy tone to it, though it was a gentle undertone. I loved how your vocalizations really pulled that tone into light, made the poem sound so much sadder and fearful and hopeful. Your choice to sing the poem made the words so much more lyrical and really greatened the impact of the diction. Hearing it as music instead of a poem will definitely leave a lasting impact on me as I carry the theme you expertly crafted and delivered.

The IdeaWhile we can't share in the traditional sense, we certainly can spend time appreciating the art of poetry through the projects our peers have created. Please give each project the thoughtful viewing it deserves, then comment on three of your favorites utilizing poetic devices to explain what you like about their project. Comments might look something like, "Wow! I love your use of imagery and simile. They really help me experience the solemn attitude you are creating in your poem," or "Hey! Billy Collins has become one of my favorite poets too; I love his sarcastic attitude and use of imagery as you have revealed here," or "I'm impressed with how creatively you were able to showcase the melancholy tone of "Because I Could Not Stop for Death" as revealed by Emily Dickinson." Please explore projects like and unlike yours and practice describing what it that you like about what you see. The project that earns 100% and has the most comments will earn a prize! Categories
