narrative poem Jake the rake

There was a boy
his name
was Jake
Jake wasn't fake
but Jake had a problem
he never raked
his mother's Leaves

one day Jake
had turned into a rake
and for the rest
of
Jake's life
he
was a rake

i tell this story to insure
you it is not about being real or fake
just don't be like Jake the rake

poem about a memorable moment

The day was very special
when that
man who is so honest
signed the greatest proclamation ever

making life ever so easy and fun
we were free
the Africans became
African-Americans

poem on picture Cowbys DAD

The pride in there walk

The talk on there land

The work that shows heart

The DAD boys

The shinnig light

The Cowboys 

response to Starry Night

  I think that this poem has many different meanings to it.  When I saw the painting and then read the poem I realized there are so many different things to this between the poem an the painting.  The writer had just took what she saw and made a picture of what she say using a poem.  Which I thought was pretty cool being able to take a visual picture and make it you own visual picture.  Don't get me wrong it is a little weird the poem becuase she ends to stanz's with "this is how i want to die." To me thats a little sucidal and depressing.  It seems to me that she was writing it becuase of what she felt and it worked out to be a good poem. 


 To me, I think the poem is great.  I really like the uniqueness to it and how its metaphors are really good.  The poem just dives deeper into topic and the main idea in every line.  It seems that Anne just wanted to express how she was feeling through a poem and just tried to get some kind of message to the readers.

Painting Analysis:Alissa Hartman Paintings

Observations:

1: a lot of bright colors blue and green
2: many different shapes and things in different sizes
3: the reflection in the water
4: background is very bright
5: trees are all green looks very peaceful

Inferences:
It looks like its a very peacful place and very calm.  The lake is very clear and crisp that you can see the mountains reflection.  The trees are fulled with vibrant green clors that are bright.  The light in this in this painting is not very dark so its gotta be in the evening. 

Interpretations:

I interpretate that this artist is trying to find the real meaning of the world.  Like in other places where there are trees and its all fulled with trash etc.  This painting is saying to me to treat the world a better place and look at its joys.  Some places like this would be turned into a mall or supermarket.  Thats what I feel like is going on or what they were trying to say.
