Composing a research paper

Hello again!!!

I am back to talk about my research paper process. I have made up my mind to write a research paper on two different poems by two different poets. I have list out the materials that I wanted to use for my 3rd assignment...
As we all know that, a poem can paint a thousand images in our mind's eye. It can mean almost anything you want it to mean. If you ask ten different people to interpret the same poem, you are very likely to get ten similar yet slightly different answers.

I realised that it is not that easy to write a research paper under poems.
Wow... I feel that my ideas are ridiculous... The most difficult parts I am facing is when I wanted to put into words all the details in order to support my points.
I feel that, Robert Frost's poem , "Nothing Gold Can Stay" is nice to talk about. I love the words used by Frost. But sometimes , I am lost when using the other poem to compare and contrast with this poem. I think I have to make a mind map and use a compare and contrast table organizer as my first step.

Actually I have put some of my ideas regarding the first poem, "Nothing Gold Can Stay"... Now as my next steps, I need to list out the differences and similarities that both poems have. The other poem I am going to use to campare and contrast is, ‘To The Virgins, To Make Much Of Time’ by Robert Herrick.
