Anything about cats appeals to me. The analogy of the cat in the window to dreams deferred was great. Ann Bennett (@AnnBennett12) recently posted…Why do birds suddenly appear?
Oh, nice metaphor! (Or would this one be a simile?) In any case, this is a fantastic way to answer the question, and also a really great example of how to make one of these micro pieces work. Great job, Natalie! Christine recently posted…Hunt
I loved this one and the way you connected the cat to the old photographs. I just taught the poem “A Dream Deferred” to my seventh-graders, so this really made an impression on me. I am going to share it with my students. (I tried to comment before, but it disappeared.) Marcy recently posted…In Peru, the Inca are Everywhere

I like the way the poem grows smaller, as the dream shrinks. 😉
