Just got done this weekend with the team website. It was difficult at first to understand exactly how to use Tripod (web hosting site), but after awhile I got the hang of it. I would have liked to use the Google version to build a site.

Out of the readings that we did for Lesson 6 I enjoyed William Butler Yeats "When You are Old". It is a beautiful poem about enduring love. The approach the poet takes is unusual. Rather than telling the woman of his love, he presents her with an image of herself as a graceful old woman reflecting on her life and loves. The poet imagines the old woman as she sits by the fire. As she realizes she was loved by many men, one man in particular (the poet) loved her the most. It is also about old age and memory. Notice though, that the title of the poem is "When You are Old" and not "Now That You are Old". The poet wants the woman to imagine how incomplete her life will be without him. By imagining this he wants her to avoid that lonely future and return his love now, while they are both still young and have their lives ahead of them.
