So for the essay on question 10 I wrote "I can infer that Rose Pogonias loves flowers, because the poem talks about flowers in a very positive tone. I can also tell that Rose thinks the meadow is very special, since she uses words like "Sun-shaped and jewel small" Shes uses Sun-shaped instead of circle-shaped, and she uses jewel small. She is comparing the meadow to very special objects which shows that the meadow is special to her. I can also infer that she finds flowers graceful like birds as she compares them to wings "Seemed tipped with wings of color"
In conclusion, I found that she finds flowers very special and important to her."

I am wondering if there is anything I can touch up since I suck at essays.
What is the exact question or instruction?
“Rose Pogonias”
by Robert Frost
1 A saturated meadow,
2 Sun-shaped and jewel small,
3 A circle scarcely wider
4 Than the trees around were tall:
5 Where the winds were quite excluded,
6 And the air was stifling sweet
7 With the breath of many flowers,----
8 A temple of the heat.
9 There we bowed us in the burning,
10 As the sun’s right worship is,
11 To pick where none could miss them
12 A thousand orchises;
13 For though the grass was scattered,
14 Yet every second spear
15 Seemed tipped with wings of color,
16 That tinged the atmosphere.
Use the poem to answer the question.

Then your write-up is pretty good. Just make sure that ONLY the quoted words/phrases/lines are in quotation marks, and that all other punctuation is correct.
Be sure to read it aloud to someone so you can catch any easily overlooked things that need changing or correcting.
