Welcome to the Kenwood poetry blog!

This blog showcases the original poetry of some of Kenwood Academy High School's Senior Class.

The diversity of the student body is mirrored in the diversity of the poetry; some poems are lighthearted and others are quite personal and serious. While the poems incorporate a variety of styles and themes, they are all inspired by the poetry that we've studied in class.

It Started With a Hug

Your hugs hug into me
like snuggle hugs towels.
i can not breathe

Inspired by You Fit Into Me

By April G. - Period 3

I kind of get the connection with You Fit Into Me but I feel you have to think very hard to understand the concept of the poem. She compared hugs to towels I seen that which is personification and "jug into me 'like' snuggle hugs towels which is a simile.

She gets straight to the point and uses a well thought out simile in the process.

Its nice, a lot like You Fit Into Me but couldve been more detailed and better word wise. Instead of "hug into" could be "smothers".
