Harry Potter Literature Works and Poetry Nominated by housemate prefect Orna who wrote "Not only is this a thought out post suggesting a new addition to our subforums (and since we prize literacy, the addition of more literary based option for our guild members equals good in my book!). She proposed the idea in a well-written manner and asked for advice and/or criticism. Also, I felt her poem has potential to invite discussion re: personal interpretation of the poem and character motivations in the book."
