Answer:
The chosen poem was “A word is dead” written by Emily Dickinson.
Explanation:
The poem above was chosen because it is short and easy to interpret. In this poem, the poet reflects on the "life" of words. We can understand this "life" as the meaning, the impact that words can have on people's lives. Although the poet begins by saying that a word dies after it is spoken (that is, the word only has meaning for the speaker), in the second stanza, she states that the word begins to live after being spoken, which means that the meaning and the impact of the word has a greater impact after hearing and interpreting it.
