I’m working on a english question and need an explanation to help me understand better.
Read both of the given poems The Lark and That’s what the wind taught me, And Write two paragraphs for each of the poems and remember to include quotes from the poem.
1. That’s What the Wind Taught Me By Mina Said Alayyan. (Check the attachment below)
2. The Lark by Gabriela Mistral https://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-lark-7/
Paragraph 1: Reflect on what this poem shows you about worldview. (Go to our lesson on nature poetry).
Paragraph 2: Write your personal reflection about this poem. How does the poem speak to you? What does it make you think about in your own life?
Part Two: Application
Choose a place outdoors and spend at least 15 minutes sitting quietly by yourself. Don’t listen to music. Don’t bring your phone. Force yourself to pay attention to small things that you usually ignore, such as the way the air is moving. Touch the natural world and record the textures, such as the bark of a tree. Take a notebook and record in detail what you observe. Be very specific. Then, use your notes to write a descriptive paragraph (approximately 150 words, but you can write more if you like). Your paragraph should reflect your own worldview of nature.
