If so, what was it? Could you still recite it??
In 5th grade my teacher had us memorize LOTS of poetry, and I still remember so much of it...

yes. it was 'little bird' i memorized it in kindergarten. yes, i remember it.
Little bird outside my window
I can hear you in my room
as you gaily serenade me
and eradicate the gloom
you chirping is the sweetest
that my ears have ever heard
you awaken me each morning
SHUT YOUR BEAK UP LITTLE BIRD!

I had to memorize a poem that became into in German as quickly as and by twist of fate, the poem have been set to song. So in case you will discover one it is in a music, it is somewhat powerful. "I never observed a moor" with the aid of Emily Dickinson has been made right into a music, for instance. it is an person-friendly technique in case you think of you at the instant are not solid at memorization.

Hamlet's "To be, or not to be" soliloquy is the only one I recall.

I scored 24 out of 25 points, which surprised the hell out of me. I was so scared, I got up, said it, and sat down, without remembering a thing. I can't recite it now.

"The Raven" is the only one I remember memorizing for school, and no, I couldn't recite it now.

It wasn't a poem, but we had to memorize "The Gettysburg Address." I can still remember most of it :)
