** =Analysis=

After I read through all of my poems I noticed a continuing pattern. I like adding my own opinions into my poems. Not only that but I also think that have some type of emotion in each of my poems. In my memory poem in lines twelve and eighteen. It is implying that I think my family thinks that I am not smart. I don’t feel this way now but I do think when this was happening my frustration was coming out when I was feeling this. In my other poems I think my opinion come out kind over clear. In my ode it was how I thought my iPod was wonderful and the emotion I felt for it was love. In my riff I don’t think I put much of an opinion in that poem there was only cockiness and in my sonnet I think the emotion there was determination. There was also something else in all of my poems that I noticed when it was pointed out to me. It was brought to my attention that when I write poems I never put any punctuation in them. I don’t think that there is any deeper meaning as to why I don’t have them in my poems. I just don’t think that they are needed in my poems because when I read a poem sometimes when my eyes fall on punctuation I think that the rest of the poem is supposed to be a change in the way you read it or think about it for some reason. I only put punctuation in one of my poems. And it was “To Make It Big” in the first line. As I said before when there is punctuation in a poem I tend to think something is going to change. In my first line because I wanted people to pause after reading the first word thus changing the feeling of the poem a change a bit. Over all I never get very deep in my poetry and I think that my poetry is okay I can still use some work.Detailed Study BJ Binning Bj Binning was born on a small island. It is unknown what the name of this island was or what year she was born. She went to private school for most of her life and when she went to college she earned a number of degrees. Before Bj Binning wrote poems or books she worked in a clothing store. When she was working in the clothing store she was discovered by an agent and she became a model. She did this for four teen year and she also appeared on television in commercials. After she did this for a whilre she started to write books and some poerty. BJ Binnings has a common style/theme to her poems. They all seem to be about the same thing,love. In a few of her poems I have read which are “The smile”, “Your spirit knows”,and “Loniness”. In each of these poems I feel like she is talking about some one and her love life. Her poems are about love but I think they maybe all about one person. In all of these poems she tends to uses end rhyme quit frequently.
