"If" Poem Response.
The connections I made to this poem was If anything was possible.
This poem is organized with 4 Stanzas, each Stanza having 8 lines, with a unique rhyming pattern of AAAABCBC ABABCDCD ABABCDCD ABABCDCD.
The tone of this poem is Imperfect. For example “If you can wait and not be tired waiting, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating, And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise.”
In this poem, I found a metaphor "Make one heap of all your winnings." and some Alliteration "Sixty seconds." I also found a piece of Hyperbole here " Or walk with Kings".
I think the meaning of this poem is anything is possible, even when in doubt from others in the world.

Sympathy Poem Response.
The connection I made to this poem was a person giving sympathy to a poor, helpless bird trying to escape a cruel, dark cage he has been locked away in.
This poem is organized with 3 Stanzas, each Stanza having 7 lines and an interesting rhyming of ABAABCC ABAABAA ABAABCC.
The tone of this poem is sympathetic. For example "I know why the bird beats his wing till its blood is red on the cruel bars For he must fly back to his perch and cling And a pain still throbs in the old, old scars And they pulse again with a keener sting - I know why the bird beats his wing."
In this poem, I found Personification such as "Cruel bars." and "Bird sings" plus "Springing grass." I also found a simile "The river flows like a stream of glass." Plus some alliteration here " heaven he" and "Through the." And last but not least, Hyperbole such as "I know what the caged bird feels."
I think the meaning of this poem is a Poet describing the terrible life of a poor, helpless bird, while the poet being sympathetic towards the little caged bird.

Returned soldier report.
Poetry Response
Returned Soldier.
The connections I made to this title was a soldier returning from war and celebrating his return.
This poem was organized with 2 Stanzas, the first Stanza has 8 lines, while the second stanza has 12 lines. The rhyming pattern of the poem was AABBAABB AABBAABBAABB.
The tone of this poem is quite inspiring. For example: "One good foot left of what was two feet, One lung just as fair, and one unclouded eye."
There are many different types of poetic devices used in this poem by the Author. I found this Simile in the 2nd paragraph, it is this "Rosellas red as apples." And a line of Hyperbole, "How wheat turns copper and gold in late November." I also found a piece of Personification here, "But all those years I heard them whining by.".
The poem is about the war he went through and reflecting and thinking about the bright side of it.
