entry #8 "The Magic Study of Happiness" by Charlottes Simic

    Before reading the poem "the Magic Study of Happiness" by Charlottes Simic I had a completely different expectation of what the story really was about. when I looked at the title I thought that the poem would be about maybe the connection that magic have with happiness or how magic help other people to be happy. After reading it about 7 times or more I realized that it is completely different from what I expected.  What I came up with is the crumbs represent a young family and that in the beginning it was lake a  paradise. so I think that the table is where all the emotions were spilled over meals. A sad poem and sad time also this has an open end. what I like the most on this poem is that no matter what scenario you apply to this writing, there is no ending. I say that I recommend it to a friend because is kind of interesting poem.
