Pandora Radio - Listen to Free Internet Radio, Find New Music - 1 views

      I have long been a user of pandora- it is nice because it is usable for tv streaming set-top boxes like Roku...

      I have used Pandora for years (though never a premium member). I don't mind the commercials from time to time, but I can't understand how it continues to play Billy Joel music on my playlist. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with Billy Joel, but Pandora never seems to get the hint when I give Billy the thumbs down.

Purple - 1 views

  • With a black crayonnightfall cameto my purple tentin the middleof an afternoon.
    • Mindy Worman
       
      Every time I read this part of this poem, it reminds me forcibly that students have hearts, and they have minds, and our responsibility as teachers goes so far beyond what we can imagine when it comes to protecting and nurturing those hearts and minds.
  • my heart beat like a tom tom
    • Mindy Worman
       
      Even more, when I read this I feel the terror a child whose trust has been abused must feel. Another mental reminder. 'kids' of all ages are fragile.

      I personally use Spotify and am contemplating paying for the monthly service, as it would be nice to never have to download a song again and have access to pretty much any song any time.

Auld Lang Syne- Poets.org - Poetry, Poems, Bios & More - 1 views

  • Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And auld lang syne! Chorus: For auld lang syne, my dear, For auld lang syne. We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet, For auld lang syne.
    • Aimee Nelson
       
      Most people know the first verse. When they sing it at NYE they usually just keep repeating this verse and the chorus.
    • Aimee Nelson
       
      It is traditional when singing Auld Lang Syne to stand in a circle of friends, cross your arms & hold hands.

"Out, Out--" by Robert Frost - 1 views

  •  
    I graduated with a B.F.A. in creative writing at the University of Evansville, and poetry was always the most difficult form of writing for me to understand. However, poetry also became the most beautiful form of writing I studied once I began to understand it a little better. This particular poem was one of the first poems I read at UE that really evoked emotion from me. It's not the happiest poem (what poem about the death of a worker boy by blood loss from losing a hand could be happy?), but the most important thing to get from this poem is the feelings the narrator is trying to convey.

A Blessing - Poets.org - Poetry, Poems, Bios & More - 1 views

  • That if I stepped out of my body I would break Into blossom.
    • Sherri Parker
       
      I'm not the best with poem interpretation. But for me, I look at this last line as the poet stating that the nuzzle of the pony in her hand makes this moment such a happy one - that if this person were a flower, he would bloom right at that moment. This depicts the happiness of this special moment.
  •  
    A poem of friendship. What do you think the last line means to you? I have shared what I think.

A Visit from Saint Nicholas - Poets.org - Poetry, Poems, Bios & More - 1 views

  • 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
    • Tonya Murphy
       
      This particular line always gives me warm fuzzies. Granted, I heard this poem first in a cartoon format, but the cartoon images that now pop into my head when I read this always make me smile.
  • But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer, With a little old driver, so lively and quick
    • Tonya Murphy
       
      I was exposed to this -after- seeing the Rudolph cartoon, and remember thinking that it was a huge difference from the larger reindeers in that cartoon!
  • But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight, "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night."

The Raven- Poets.org - Poetry, Poems, Bios & More - 1 views

  • The Raven   by Edgar Allan Poe
    • Justin MacMillan
       
      Classic poem of the macabre. It is a story that is either a man's interaction with the supernatural, or a man who looses his mind with grief. Thinking a bird is somthing other than what it is. One of Poe's most famous works.

The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock- Poets.org - Poetry, Poems, Bios & More - 0 views

  • When the evening is spread out against the sky Like a patient etherized upon a table
    • kirkengaard
       
      This is a rather unromantic view of a sunset.
  • yellow fog
    • kirkengaard
       
      This is actually pollution. The image is literal.
  • I have measured out my life with coffee spoons
    • kirkengaard
       
      His life lacks any attributes of the heroic.
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • Though I have seen my head [grown slightly bald] brought in upon a platter, I am no prophet—and here's no great matter
    • kirkengaard
       
      This is a reference to John the Baptist, who was beheaded.
  • I grow old… I grow old… I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled
  • To lead you to an overwhelming question…
    • kirkengaard
       
      There is some debate over what this question might be. Is Prufrock working up the courage to approach a woman?
  • And I have seen the eternal Footman hold my coat, and snicker, And in short, I was afraid.
    • kirkengaard
       
      Is this a reference to death?
  • Should I, after tea and cakes and ices, Have the strength to force the moment to its crisis?
    • kirkengaard
       
      Even in mundane matters, there can be great personal drama.
  • Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach?
    • kirkengaard
       
      The narrator is inflicted with terrible indecision.
  • I do not think that they will sing to me.
    • kirkengaard
       
      Is this a reference to lonliness and isolation?
  • Do I dare Disturb the universe?
  • No! I am not Prince Hamlet, nor was meant to be
  • At times, indeed, almost ridiculous— Almost, at times, the Fool
  • We have lingered in the chambers of the sea By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown Till human voices wake us, and we drown.
