"Nani" by Alberto Rios Response Blog continue...

Personal response
     I really liked the poem by Alberto Rios and I can really connect to the grandchild because I had a Grandmom that recently passed away and whenever I went to her house she always took the best care of me. Alberto Rios did a great job getting the emotional tone out and showing the feelings of the grandson being sad about his Grandmom passing away  the is loss of some of his cultural. The most meaningful quote out of the whole poem to me was "I wonder just how much of me will die with her"

-Any questions the piece raised for you as a reader
      I wonder what kind of experiences Alberto has gone through for him to write such a meaningful poem. Also I would like to know what kind of poem this is and what inspired him to write this.
