Intro To Poetry

1. The significance of the title is to show the significance of tangible things (humans) working with intangible things to create positive outcomes.
2. The tone of the poem is uplifting. It's positively optimistic, yet true.
3. I trust the poem and understand it but yet it makes me question.
4. There is a shift where the author says, "I am thinking of the way." The poem shifts from talking about working together to intangible things.
5. The theme is to trust in things you can see, but also things you can't see.

I feel like these questions are almost a format, or steps, to better understand a poem. Going through these questions one at a time allows the reader to analyze the poem and establish what they know.
