Today was my one day off this week from work. I spent the morning trying to understand and dissect the different poems of others in my poetry class. Each word has its own meaning that when combined with the different connotations of the thoughts surrounding that word, the meaning of the entire poem can take such shape. When I finished studying, I was struck with just how creative authors of poems have to be: they have to evaluate what the reader's first reaction will be and how that first reactiom will or will not affect how they look at the poem as a whole. And, after the author thinks through those initial reactions, the author has to write the poem using the precise words to achieve the complete meaning.

Coming home from a crazy afternoon of shopping and looking through my mom's pictures that she took of my little sister. Seeing how she takes the subject of the picture, changes the colors, and softens the surroundings to represent the personality of the portrait. Each tiny detail must be thought out and changed until it reaches the perfection that the artist has seen from the first snap of the shutter.
