Poetry, eh? To most people, poetry isn't so interesting, but to those special of us, we know the truth. Poetry can be amazing and vibrant as long as you are reading the right kind of poetry. 1909Please respect copyright.PENANAcQ1Af7qZij
But how about explaining poetry? Now that's a different art. 1909Please respect copyright.PENANAFxYGoZrreD
Below, I have supplied the beautiful, the famous, the touching poem "Harlem" by Langston Hughes. In as many or as few words as you need, write a prose about this poem. It can retell it, explain it, or be a narrative based off it. Anything, as long as it is in a paragraph form (that's what prose is). 1909Please respect copyright.PENANA7dcE4hrilH
