Which Way to Dreamland? I chose this one beacause I could connect to it well. It made me wonder why do I even have dreams, and how do dreams get into your head? I had the same thought after I woke up.

Me X 2
this poem reminded me of how I speak 2 languages...."Cause most speak one but I speak two!"

This poem made me feel intrigued, it was fun to discover the meaning of this poem.

This poem was a mirror-I speak 2 languages... and a window-I don't speak both fluently.

I wish I could "read, write and think times 2."

I like the book Amazing Faces it had lots of poems with hidden meanings and it is fun/challenging to uncover them.

I'm the one. I don't like this poem but it is sad so I chose this poem because it is so time what lots of people some times I even feel that way if my friend are in a bad mood so when I talk to them they ignore me and so time if we are playing a game they yell at me but that's not the point the poin is if you felt that way you know not to do that to your friend.

My connection to this poem was that I have got a touchdown in a big game with the golden sun shining. This poem made me feel excited for my next game against Wakefield. This poem was a window because I have never got the game-winning touchdown.

WHICH WAY TO DREAMLAND?
By Carole Boston Weatherford

Even though I don't usually remember my dreams, I love to daydream.
This poem made me feel sort of relaxed.
This poem was sort of a mirror, because i like to daydream, and I do wonder where dreams come from.
