Reflect: Pause and Notice
Poetry is not just meant to be read—it's meant to be felt. Take a moment to pause and notice what feelings, memories, or insights arise.
Why Reflection Matters
A poem can evoke emotions, spark memories, or shift your perspective in subtle ways. By reflecting, you allow the poem's meaning to unfold within you, making the experience more personal and transformative.
How to Reflect on a Poem
After reading, close your eyes and notice your emotional response.
Ask yourself: What images or lines stood out? Why?
Does the poem remind you of a memory, a person, or a place?
Write down your thoughts or discuss them with a friend.
Try It Yourself
Choose a poem and read it slowly. Pause for a minute or two before moving on. Let the poem linger—sometimes its meaning will deepen over time.
