"Grape Sherbet" Blog post 2011


I can relate to the poem "Grape Sherbet" because I have had get togethers before with friends and sometimes family. Spending time with other people that you care about is always fun. It is always fun to be around other people you love and have fun together. In the poem the speaker talks about their father and how they loved them so much, and everything he did. This is nice because they are remembering their father and what he was like. Some phrases that help me to imagine this poem are, "through the grassed- over mounds," "the diabetic grandmother stares from the porch." these phrases allow the reader to imagine the scene of the poem.
