Poems on Poetry for english 1020

I liked the poems we read on poetry. A lot of different people had different opinions on the different poems. When I read the poem I was assigned to work on, at first I couldn't figure out some of the things he used to symbolize different points that he was trying to make. When he referred to love as leaning grass and then made a reference to two lights, I thought he was trying to use those references as a form of disguising the fact that he was trying to use the cliche of finding the one we are meant to be with for eternity. In the part that talks about how memory fades and the open door and the maple leaf, I thought of my great grandfather. who has Altzheimer's disease and of how fast his memory faded in just a short time.
