My homework questions says: "Write a letter to Marianne Moore, describing your response to "Poetry." Cite specific passages from her poem." I understand how to cite the passage, however, I can't think of how to really "respond" to her poem. Could you maybe help me think of a sentence to help me start this response I am supposed to write? Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

There are lots of ideas in here. Read many, and then let us know what you decide to write.
Certainly! When responding to a poem, it's helpful to consider your emotional reaction, interpretation, and personal connection to the work. Here's a sentence to help you start your response:
"Dear Marianne Moore, your poem "Poetry" has truly captivated me with its vivid imagery and thought-provoking insights into the power of art."
In this sentence, you can express your initial impression of the poem, highlighting what specifically caught your attention, such as the use of imagery or the poem's exploration of the theme of art. Remember to cite specific passages from the poem that illustrate your points and support your response.
