A LOT of Poetry Today...

We went CRAZY with poetry today!  With our main focus being the song/poem "Isle of Hope, Isle of Tears," I thought you'd like to see a photo of what the poem was representing....Then notice the questions I ask to help me understand even more.

Look below and continue to make MORE meaning from the poem today!
Also here's the link to the song for those of you who really liked it:  Click Here


Annie Moore 1892
When someone passes through Ellis Island and everything that goes with it, do they ever think of going back?

If they go back, do they remember everything they went through when they were younger, perhaps when they were 15 years?

Would it be sad or difficult to think of the place (Ellis Island) that gave you freedom, life and a future has shut down forever?  Would it be like your past is disappearing?

Hmmm... Does this help you even more??  We'll chat about this in the morning.  I'll know you checked the blog if you share your NEW thinking after seeing my questions above.  Add it to this TodaysMeet Link.

That's it!  See you for TGIF!!!
