For my project I chose to read Where the Birds Never Sing and to write a poem about it.
Poems are very interesting to me, because a poem can be a short piece of work that holds so much meaning. So, I decided to write a poem of my own: “From Peace to Grief and Back Again”, to show the events of my novel. We had to write it in Sonnet form, so that means an “ABAB” rhyming pattern with ten syllables per line, and fourteen lines. I decided to use something we learned last year called “The Hero’s Journey” as a guideline for my piece, because I knew that it would help my work be more fluid and understandable. I started it off using the basis of the beginning of the story, the family setting, which was the ordinary world from “The Hero’s Journey”,
