Poetry out Loud

For poetry out loud, I chose to memorize a poem called The Orange. I chose this poem because I thought it was really cute and creative. And I will be honest I also chose it because it was not as lengthly as some others, but also it made me feel relaxed and comfortable reading The Orange because it is pretty short but also it has a very creative mood. I feel pretty good about memorizing this and reading it in front of the class. I usually don't have a problem with reading in front of people and I have memorized quite a bit of my poem.

 I can relate this poem to some poems I have written. I like to write shorter fun poems that give me a good feeling. It's hard for me to explain just what that feeling is, its kind of a feeling of hope and happiness in being where you are in your life, and thats what this poem brings to me.
