During this quarter, we learned about poetry. Each day, our progress of learning poetry keep increasing. As day passed by, we learn some new poetic devices or the type of poem , and that we apply that poetic devices to create a poem. It was pretty hard challenge because there were some poetic devices that were very challenging, such as we need to create a poem that each line must have the same beat or syllables. It is was very challenging because we need to think of words so that it can up to the same syllables. There were also some easy poem such as haiku, because we only need to create 3 lines but the first and third line have 5 syllables while the second must have 7. It was quite fun of creating poem. I think my successful poem was the last, creating a narrative poem. We must create a poem that tells story about a hero, either fictional or non fiction. In this case, I chose a non fiction hero, a greek hero, his name is King Leonidas of Sparta. I chose him because he showed a quality of hero, with only 300 men, he managed to fend off massive persian army for his homeland. He gladly give his life for the sake of his homeland. From this example, I took him as my hero in the narrative. He has a quality of being called as a hero. In creating the poem, I use reliable sources so that the information I give through the poem is accurate and true. I did want to give the audience a false information. I also included as many details as possible, about how they stand and fight the massive Persian army. I used this details so that the reader would understand why he is deserved being called as hero. I used as many as poetic devices I could use because by doing that, it would make the poem better. The thing I need to improve was grammar. I need fix some grammatical error, for example the use of coma, full stop, and capital latter. But generally, my narrative poem was quite good. There was a beginning, middle and end. The poem tell the whole story of how can King Leonidas became king
