Discuss their apparent themes in relation to one or more elements of poetry: imagery, metaphor, simile, symbol, word choice (diction), form, sound, voice, tone.

1. Compare (which is to say, compare and contrast) two or three poems on the syllabus this semester that have similar topics. Discuss their apparent themes in relation to one or more elements of poetry: imagery, metaphor, simile, symbol, word choice (diction), form, sound, voice, tone. Ask yourself: how do the elements of poetry create the effects of the poem: feelings and meanings? Dont simply write about one poem and then switch entirely to the other; find elements worth comparing about both, and refer one poem to the other. For example, you may discover different tones and themes even though the topics are the same. Explain why. compare and contrast these two peoms: Oranges, by Gary Soto and First Kiss, by Pamela Moore
