Ever since Final Page...I am LOVING choosing titles! Ever since Final Page of Oak Leaf's Memoir, I have realized how very integral the title is to the poem. Not a descriptor tacked on after the poem is written, but sometimes almost the first line of the poem, or an early punchline, or the bit that makes the poem mean more than it ever could on its own.Mary Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078793537148794310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-48453525596202278692012-04-07T10:14:52.573-04:002012-04-07T10:14:52.573-04:00This Is Just To Say

The title is so important in this poem. I find choosing a title to be much harder than I anticipated.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233792477358685156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-31722047912879184592012-04-06T23:37:11.393-04:002012-04-06T23:37:11.393-04:00HA!
