Poem: Broken Glass

It seems I found a new layer of masks

A filter through which I once saw the world

It once seemed completely real

But it’s shattered

Poem: You Can Be Happy If You Want

I want to be alone.

I want to say out loud how I am feeling.

I want to do this in only one place.

I decide to walk to a hidden lake.

Poem: Fanning the flame within

You have it.

You know it’s there.

That spark of inspiration.

That flame of passion.

That energy that smolders at times

But other times climbs to high heights.

Analysis: The representation of women in 19th-Century poetry through the works of Tennyson, Browning and Rossetti

In this piece, I reflect on the representation of women in poetry in the 19th-century, through a selection from the works of Alfred Lord Tennyson, Robert Browning and Christina Rossetti. It’s also interesting to see the difference in perception and portrayal of female characters by male writers vs female authors.
