Women Equality

One day, Women will not walk out in fear

Not with their heads hung low, but their heads held up high.

One day, Women will be looked up to, and not shown as a prize to win and be tinkered with.

One day, Women will no longer walk in the shadows, but in the light.

They we be successful in everything,

Not just polishing pots and pans.

Women will finally be equal.

We will finally be able to do the same things as men.

We will not have to deal with the uncivil comments of catcallers as we walk down the street.

One day, girls around the globe will get the same wages as the opposite gender.

We will be taken seriously.

We will not have to change ourselves.

One day, men will realize how important we are,

as we change the course of history.

One day, We will feel stronger than ever before.

1. The poem type that I published was the Inspired by poem.
2. c. The source of my inspiration was the women’s march on Washington D.C.
3. The tone of my poem is hopeful and inspiring.
4. The theme of my poem is Women equality.
5. One example of figurative language is “One day, Women will be looked up to, and not shown as a prize to win and be tinkered with.” This  is a simile. This contributes to the tone and theme because we are saying that we should not be shown like that, we should be shown as human beings.
6. Another example of figurative language is “Not with their heads hung low, but their heads held up high.” This is an example of alliteration. This contributes to the tone and theme because it flows better as you read the poem.
7. One way I revised my poem was when I changed the word ” played” to “tinkered” because  I felt that it had a deeper meaning when I put the new word in. Another way I revised my poem was when I changed “cleaning” to ” polishing” because that way, it adds alliteration to the poem.
8. This poem was difficult for me at first because I was not sure what to write about, but once I had an idea, it was fairly easy.
9. I am extremely satisfied with the final draft because I did not no how capable I was at writing a decent poem.
