In this activity you will write a lyric poem. Consider what you have learned about poetry so far in this lesson and unit. Write a lyric poem on an appropriate topic of your choice. Because lyric poetry focuses on exploring and evoking the speaker’s moods and thoughts without telling a story, your poem should do this as well. Your poem should include these elements: a clear purpose or goal a focused exploration of a particular theme figurative language some major aspect of poetry discussed in the course so far, such as a rhyme scheme, meter, or poetic structure Introduce your topic and theme effectively and provide some degree of resolution to your topic. Do so by introducing the subject, developing the theme, and exploring how that theme has affected you. Your poem should be at least 16 lines long. These guidelines may be helpful: Make sure your poem has an intended purpose and conveys an idea. Don’t talk about multiple events or topics. Focus on one theme or idea. Consider using figurative language to express emotions. For a poem to be lyrical, it often needs a basic rhyme scheme, meter, and structure. Keep your poem short and maintain the same rhyme scheme in the stanzas.

ok good job so far and i will finish

Explanation:

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate.

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer's lease hath all too short a date.

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimmed,

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed.

Go, lovely Rose-

Tell her that wastes her time and me,

That now she knows,

When I resemble her to thee,

How sweet and fair she seems to be.

Tell her that's young,

And shuns to have her graces spied,

That hadst thou sprung

In deserts where no men abide,

Thou must have uncommended died.

Small is the worth

Of beauty from the light retired:

Bid her come forth,

Suffer herself to be desired,

And not blush so to be admired.

Then die-that she

The common fate of all things rare

May read in thee;

How small a part of time they share

That are so wondrous sweet and fair!

in ray bradbury's short story "a sound of thunder", mr. eckels's fearfulness leads to drastic consequences for the rest of the world.

in the story, mr. eckels, who is a hunter, hires a time travel company to travel to the age of dinosaurs. although he is excited for the hunting expedition at the beginning, when they reach there and mr. eckels sees the tyrannosaurus, he feels frightened. as he is afraid of the tyrannosaurus, he steps off the path although he has been warned not to do it. by stepping off the path, the entire course of the future is affected: mr. eckart alters the future by stepping on a butterfly, which causes a new man to be elected president in the future. in that way, it is mr. eckart's fearfulness what triggers 'the butterfly effect' and what leads to drastic consequences for the rest of the world.
