    Well sometimes the poems are general, but some specially ask for a love poem or a war poem.

    There are always two options and sometimes it is "recommend a poem for a book" or something like that and you can use it there.

    There is no point in learning another poem now but make sure you know both of them really well and hope for the best.

    Tbh OP, I'd be slightly worried right now. What if a poet question comes up and you might have to talk about more than one of their peoms? Or a question on a childhood (not that it has come up but it could :confused: )? If I were you I'd grab your English book and read through some poems. Don't learn them but just know them. Hopefully you'll be ok, but there's always the chance.

    Then again, like Mumty said a general poem question might come up and you'd be sorted :)
