poem must be magical
A POEM MUST BE MAGICAL First, a poem, must be magical, Then musical as a sea-gull. It must be a brightness moving And hold secret a bird's flowering. It must be slender as a bell. And it must hold fire as well. It must have a wisdom of bows. And it must kneel like a rose. It must be able to hear The luminance of dove and dear. It must be able to hide What it seeks, like a bride. And over all I would like to hover God, smiling from the poem's

What is Love? Is it beautiful or ugly?
What is Love? Is it beautiful or ugly? Is it kind or mean? Is it set or messy? Or is it somewhere in between? Is it intoxicating or rejuvenating? Is it confined or free? Is it serious or amusing? I need to know don't you see. Is it soaring or crashing? Is it slow or fast? Is it daring or dashing? And does it really last? What exactly is love is a mystery to me. It's as clear as murky mud or as the deep blue sea. Sarah
survival
SURVIVAL I died a mineral and became a plant. I died a plant and rose an animal. I died an animal and I was man. Why should I fear? When was I less by dying? Yet once more I shall die as man, to soar With the blessed angels; But even from angelhood I must pass on. All except God perishes. When I have sacrificed my angel soul, I shall become that which no mind ever conceived. o, let me not exist! For Non-Existence proclaims, "To him we shall

Compare the attitudes of men and women to love and relationshipsin these two 17th Century poems. Both poems To His Coy Mistress and The Beggar Woman
Lauren Fernandez Compare the attitudes of men and women to love and relationships in these two 17th Century poems. Both poems To His Coy Mistress and The Beggar Woman were written during the 17th Century, a time in which there were clear status / class divides in society, very different to how things are today. Women had no status and didnt really have many rights or even much independance. Men were definitly the dominant sex practically ruling but thats just the way things were in the 17th Century. Laws would revolve around men in order allow them to have the benefits in life, men were clearly of a much higher status. The two poets Andrew Marvell and William King both focus on the attitudes of men and women towards love, sex and relationships in general. William King particularly focuses on highlighting the social class issues of the 17th Century. During the 17th century attitudes towards sex and relationships were a little stricter than the veiws on sex and relationships today. Back in the 17th Century it was morally wrong to have sex before marriage (this particularly applied to Christian people), the same as having children before marriage. There was a very negative attitude towards prostitutes, no different from today. However prostitutes and people sleeping with prostitutes were looked down on, particularly by people of a high class or status. Each poem shows how the
Pre - 1914 Poetry Coursework
HW 29/3/09 Pre -1914 Poetry Coursework Love poems can be traced back many years, love is typically thought of as lust, commitment and sacrifice all rolled into one and here is a quote from Abraham Crowley on love "A mighty pain to love it is, and 'tis a pain that pain to miss; but of all the pains, the greatest pain is to love, but love in vain." Love poems tend to be thought of as very conventional. Traditionally, i would expect a love poem to have comparisons, comparing their loved one to angels or goddesses and to build a image in the readers mind that their love was pure and faultless, they would also include in the poem comparisons between their loved one and goddesses or angels and would describe their facial features to something so pure and faultless. However, i have found that some unconventional love poems describe their loved ones to something ugly or dark, some may compare their loved ones to fleas and insects but yet they say that their love is pure and unbreakable. In From Fidessa written by Bartholomew Griffin which was a petrarchan sonnet written in 1596, Bartholomew Griffin talks about his lady obsessively as he uses the metaphor
