My Poem

Well, the first poem I had chosen was Snow Day by Billy Collins but because it was so long, I didn't think that I would have enough time to memorize it. So my second choice was Football by Louis Jenkins. This poem instantly cought my eye because of it's title. I'm a sports guy and I love football so i'm thinking this is the perfect poem. When I read it I was kind of confused because it wasn't all about football. It had a few lines about football but the real meaning was life isn't perfect, but you can make things happen because anything is possible. I can convey the meaning of the poem in his kind of satirical way by moving my voice around and making it interesting to listen to. Also maybe a few hand gestures here and there to emphasize what i'm talking about.
