Writing Assignment #8

Due: Friday, 27 March 2009

Plath's "Morning Song" records the experiences of a new mother. Drawing explicitly on the language of the poem, write 300-400 words exploring how the mother feels about this new arrival.

While your answer should be in complete, grammatical sentences, you do not need to write a formal essay.  There does not need to be a broad, declarative opening. You do not need to reach a thundering conclusion.  Dive right into the discussion.  If you are stuck with how to begin, just start naming the details you think are important.
