[QUOTE="kaylie2, post: 1541199, member: 605897"] Okay, I have some poetry homework tonight. I'm supposed to get a Langston Hughes poem and analyze it. I chose 'Dream Variations' And I really like it. As part of my homework, I need to see what different people take this poem as, and what different people think it means. So could you read this poem and tell me what you think it means? THANKS A MILLION! :) Dream Variations Langston Hughes To fling my arms wide In some place of the sun, To whirl and to dance Till the white day is done. Then rest at cool evening Beneath a tall tree While night comes on gently, Dark like me- That is my dream! To fling my arms wide In the face of the sun, Dance! Whirl! Whirl! Till the quick day is done. Rest at pale evening... A tall, slim tree... Night coming tenderly Black like me. [/QUOTE]
