Which poem is about wanting a fresh start after mistakes?

• A. Ulysses
• B. A Stone I Died
• C. The Medicine Bag
• D. Let Me Begin Again

Answer: (D)

The idea being tested is the sense of wanting a fresh start after mistakes. A poem that centers on renewal will often emphasize beginning again, erasing past errors, and trying anew. This one fits best because its title expresses exactly that impulse: “Let Me Begin Again” directly conveys a wish to reset and start over. That clear call for a new start is the essence of wanting a fresh beginning after missteps. The other titles don’t center on starting over after mistakes in the same direct way. Ulysses is more about endurance and continuing a journey, moving forward rather than resetting. The remaining two suggest different themes—memory, healing, or identity—without the explicit focus on reclaiming a new start after errors.
