Hi all--
Can anyone recommend a poem which would be good for teaching metaphor? I
will also have my students memorize and recite it, so I'd like it to be of
reasonable length. Sylvia Plath's "Metaphors" came to mind, but I'm having
second thoughts on whether or not it might be considered inappropriate or if it
would make the kids uncomfortable to recite it. Any suggestions would be
GREATLY appreciated!

Cathy
