Compose a epic poem or a couplet for Monday.
Either write...
A couplet is a pair of lines of meter in poetry. It usually consists of two lines that rhyme and have the same meter. Using The Canterbury Tales (you can find it online) by Chaucer as an example, create your own couplet poem. The poem should be at least 14 lines long and establish a clear end rhyme scheme.

An epic poem tells a story of a epic hero. It tells a tale of strength and overcoming weakness. An epic poem is a lengthy narrative poem, ordinarily concerning a serious subject containing details of heroic deeds and events significant to a culture or nation (14 lines).
Beneath the poem write three sentences about why you wrote the poem, three sentences about the poetic devices (include at least three poetic devices in your poem), and three sentences about the specific form you chose and how the form does or does not follow all of the "rules" of the form. Incorporate at least 2 literary devices (i.e. simile, metaphor, imagery, symbolism) and three vocabulary words from Unit 9.
