Inaugural Poem" Praise Song for the day" By:Elizabeth Alexander

What I think the title for the inaugural poem, "Praise Song for the Day" means that we should be thankful for everyone that made in change in the passed history, like Mr.Luther King, Malcolm X and many more. We should thank them because that what made Barack Obama be the first African-American President in all time. This poem made me feel is every generous for what we have today and thankful for all the help we are going to have and also the bad thing that happen back then and because of the hero back then we have the better future."I know there’s something better down the road.We need to find a place where we are safe.We walk into that which we cannot yet see", Elizabeth Alexander said, I like this quote from the poem because it talks about hope and love and that's what Obama campaign is all about. The poetic device that the poet uses in this poem is free verse. This poem relates to Obama in his life and the inauguration because it all about hope and love and that what we need in this to make a big change. The theme of this is Hope, Change. This poem relates to something in our life which means the future because the poem relates to Obama and Obama relates to us because he the future of us.
