Read MoreThe connote of the poem was Deep. I say this because the writer use specific words to make you visualize what she or he wants you to see.

Why does it matter, for you, personally, that she gains confidence?-
It matters to me because every woman should/needs to have some type of confidence

Dear Alexis,
I would like to say that your poem is beautiful and the diction is beautifully chosen. I really enjoyed reading about both sides of your lives because it’s important to cherish your culture and your heritage. I liked how you described Haiti from what the world views it as but we both know that Haiti has more to it than just the negative. You should be proud of the person you and the independent woman in your life. Keep writing because it’s beautiful.
