This poem is good. It is a good poem because it is long and has a rhyme.

I really enjoyed this book because it had lots of details! After reading it
I can acutally picture the moment of the Hiawatha's departure! I can read
it over and over again!a

This section of the poem, Hiawatha's Departure, really showed how much a
person can be respected. It also shows how there can be many bitter-sweet
moments. Hiawatha also respects the animals and people that live in his
tribe. Hiawatha also tries to absorb the last moments with the village that
he was born in. You can also visually see the setting in your mind. The
author said something that let the reader know that the pond captured the
tree's shadows and of how every litttle thing, every person and animal was
saying "O farewell, Hiawatha." It showed how much they were going to miss
him. Hiawatha's departure must've definitely made a big effect on the rest
of Lonfellow's poem.

I think that this poem is lovely and I really enjoyed reading it. I feel
that it shows how one person can be important and how a couple of people
could strongly become true friends with them. I think hthis poem shows how
true and loyal a friend can be.

I really liked this poem. I liked how Longfellow started out describing the
setting and things around Hiawatha...and then started out a conversation
with the Indians. Longfellow uses alot of imagery in his poems. For
example, when Longfellow described "and between the parted fingers...fell
sunshine on his features". I could actually feel the sun's rays. The poem
was like a story, it explained Hiawatha's Departure from the Indians. I
guess that's why it's named Hiawatha's Departure. :)
