Living in a cave is like a life without water
People don't understand what they don't know
Where outside there is sun and it is hotter
Being enlightened helps people to grow
Our senses of what is real, our minds will conceal
Plato explains that we have become blinded
To those captured inside they think it's surreal
Bound in shackles they aren't open minded
When one becomes free, his ideas are shifted
Trying to shine light has but none effect
Our comfort deems more important than was gifted
Our skins tells our thoughts it should reject
Humans were only raised with a sheltered mentality
It's our decision to ensure it doesn't stay our finality
Whitney! Your Shakespearean sonnet is great! Your last two lines stuck out the most! It is true, we are raised with a one-sided mentality and it is our decision to jump to a well-rounded mentality!
ReplyDeleteYour blog is great! Your background is making me want to buy a bag of candy! haha! Overall, great job Whitney! Come check out my blog! http://lvalenzuelarhsenglitcomp.blogspot.com/
Well there my fellow colleague. I see you took the stand of Shakespearean Sonnet, indeed it is very powerful and deep. Your rhyming were perfect and there were good iambs to support your sonnet, I applause your efforts into incorporating your opinion of what a cave was like to you.
ReplyDeleteHi Whitney! Nice work on your sonnet! I really like this line, "Humans were only raised with a sheltered mentality."
ReplyDeleteI like your background! Your blog is very organized, which I find enjoyable! Which book is your group reading? How do you plan on understanding your reading? What is your role in your group?

Your background screams "Whitney" to me! I liked your sonnet; it had very well-thought-out information!
ReplyDeleteWHITNEY!! Your sonnet was amazing! It completely captured me and your blog background is like Ian said "screams Whitney". You and your polka dots!
ReplyDeleteWhitney, I think that your sonnet is good and it has a lot of information. By the way your blog background is nice and colorful. And do you need any help or have any ideas for the final?
