I felt that by showing you the picture with the poem it helped you understand the poem. The statement is true "a picture is worth a thousand words." By looking at these pictures the words of the poets became more clear to me what the poet was saying. I usually have a hard time understanding poetry, but by looking at the pictures while reading the poems it gave me a better understanding of the peom. I feel that the mirror poem was a little more confusing but when I looked at the picaso painting it really helped me understand the depth of the poem. The Musee des Beaux Arts poem really went hand in hand with the painting. When looking at the painting you could feel what the peot was saying, the clouds the discription of the ship, and the sky, the picture says and showed it all. I think all poets should include a picture with their poems. I would read more poetry if they did, becuase it really did make more sense to me.
