    As we discussed in class today, poetry is considered difficult because it is so concise and intense. A well-made poem shows without telling. We can see it on the page and hear its words read aloud, but we can also see, hear, feel, smell, and sometimes taste what it evokes. Some scholars assert that poetry is magical; in the most powerful cases, a poem says what ordinary language cannot say.

    Your task in this first reading response, therefore, is to "translate" Hopkins’s "Spring and Fall" into plain English. Try not to feel too constrained by the text’s peculiarity. Instead, I encourage you to interpret "translate" however you wish. Type this translation into whatever word processing application you use. Without peeking at what other folks have written, copy your translation to the "comments" below.

    Then, in ~100 words, describe how you arrived at your translation. * The 100 words do not include your translation, which can be as long or as short as you believe you need it to be. Your response is due at 11:59 p. m., Wednesday, January 19. Bring your translation (either in a notebook, in your head, or otherwise) to Thursday’s class.
