We in detail studied and analyzed the poetry of Robert Frost and Edna St Vincent Millay . We are beginning our poetry unit with these 20th Century poets as these poems tend to be more reader accessible due to their regular structure , contemporary diction, clear meter, and recognizable rhyme scheme. Using the analytical format I prepared, we discussed the identify of the speaker, the relationship between structure and meaning, and how figurative language and symbols convey meaning . We continue to work on the identification of personification , symbols, and metaphors and rising from the literal meaning to the symbolic or thematic significance . To aid interpretation I have Nina paraphrase certain stanzas and focus on the imagery.Through this exercise she has been able to improve her analysis and achieve some poetic epiphanies .
