I chose an ee cummings' poem for my photo story because his poems are meant to be read aloud, and often, because of his eccentric typography and punctuation, his meaning isn't apparent until it IS read aloud. "in Just", for me, is a poem about the end of childhood- children being drawn into adulthood. Darker interpretations exist, but I will leave that for the reader to decide.
Having students create this type of photo project can help them make abstract poems and ideas more concrete and understandable.
Enjoy.
