Marriage of Visual and Thematic Aspects of Herbert's Poetry

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Eighth graders describe the relationship between the visual aspects of "Easter Wings" and the poem's subject, and theorize about the poet George Herbert's motivations in constructing the poem this way. They demonstrate their ability to write a poem using the white space deliberately, forming the poem into the shape of a "plus sign."
