Free Write on "I felt a Funeral, in my Brain"

I think the author, Emily Dickinson, felt like her brain was dead since she had titled the poem, "I felt a Funeral, in my Brain." She had described how there was a ceremony for the funeral and a coffin. She also described that she was alone in Heaven and dropped down until she hit the world, finished. By reading the poem, I can imagine seeing the funeral as described by the author and I think the author was describing how she died from drowning and was seeing her funeral take place.

Feelings on Poetry

I feel that poetry is a way to express one's emotions. For instance when you are feeling down, you can make yourself feel better by writing a poem about how you are feeling at the time. You can just take your emotions out on the poem and have many meanings to it. Poetry can also be entertaining to read when you are bored because you can relate to the poem or the author.
