Simon Armitage, author of ‘Mother any distance’ has written a poem on the pain of moving home and suffering of leaving your parents, from a child’s point of view. This is similar to the poem, ‘On my first Sonne’ written by Ben Jonson where his child has already left him as the child has sadly […]
The Beggar Woman The Beggar Woman was written around 1663 to 1712, by William King. William King worked as a lawyer and judge but wrote poems as a hobby. It can be led to believe that his job may have influenced him to write the Beggar woman, because of some acts of injustice that he […]
By reading E.E. Cummings’ poem “In Just”, one can identity several examples of figurative language that Cummings used in his poem to convey themes of childhood. For example, the language that he used is referring to a child’s language such as “mud-luscious” and “puddle-wonderful”. Cummings used these words to describe simple descriptions of what an […]
“Warning” written by Jenny Joseph and “Old Man, Old Man” by U., both contain cautionary themes. Although they both depict old age, Fanthorpe and Jenny Joseph differ in their portrayal of it.

In To His Coy Mistress and A Woman to Her Lover, different loves are portrayed and the way the poets have shown the attitudes towards love are form, structure, different rhyme schemes, altering tones of voice and punctuation. There are two main types of love in To His Coy Mistress; there is a desire for […]
The relationships that the poems I have studied are about parents’. I understand that the two poems that I have studied have extremely different views on their parents. The two poems that I have looked at are “Boy driving his father to confession. ” by Seamus Heaney and “A praise song for my mother. ” […]
This poem sounds as if an old man wrote it, however the poet was merely 23 years old when this poem was published. The entire poem is very poignant and tragic in tone and the main reason why I get the impression of an old man as the narrator is because the poet seems to […]

A sonnet is a 14-line poem written in iambic pentameter, which means each line has 10 syllables with 5 stressed and 5 unstressed. Sonnets typically follow a strict rhyme scheme and often have regular breaks, like the one in this case, after the eighth line. The first eight lines of both poems, known as the […]
The pain of aging, of slowly feeling the fire and passion flickering out is portrayed in “Night Sweat” by Robert Lowell. Simply put it is of a man with an illness and his disorganised thought and feelings but deeper, there is his fear and his agony as he feels his youth and its hopes and […]
The British poet Wilfred Owen has implemented down the sonnet, ‘Anthem for Doomed Youth.’ This poem got its title from another poet. This poem was set during the First World War and describes the conditions of the millions of soldiers who died fighting for their countries. Mr. Owen himself was a soldier who fought for […]
The poem Farmhand by James K. Baxter is about a self-conscious male who is only at easewhen working on the land. In contrast, She Dwelt Among the Untrodden Ways by William Wordsworth focuses on a girl called Lucy who has just died; she is described using natural metaphors. Baxter wrote his poem in the 20th […]
In ‘Night of the scorpion’ it is about a place where the poet’s mother was stung by mother. Nissim Ezekeil describes what happened to his mother on that night and what the reactions of people were. This all creates an image of a place in the reader’s mind. Similarly, in ‘Blessing’ the poet creates an […]
In the society I live in – in the UK – everyone has freedom of speech. In the past there used to be a lot of countries in which your feelings towards something were only to be known by you. Dictatorships do not allow freedom of speech nor even a freedom to be in certain […]
Isobel Dixon’s poem ‘Plenty’ explores childhood memories using various forms of language. This theme of childhood memories is also evident in other poems from the collection ‘Songs of Ourselves’. A connection can be made between ‘Plenty’ and “Little Boy Crying”, as both poems showcase the contrasting perceptions of children and adults. In ‘Plenty’, the children […]
Both poets are showing their identity across to the reader. However they are doing it in different ways. The layout for The Class Game- Mary Casey is a monologue. A monologue is a short, alone speech. This makes it easier for the reader to understand the point of the poem and it makes it more […]

Throughout these three poems a sense of conflict, inequality and difference is created. All three represent one form of these emotions in ways that are similar to each other and others that are different to each other.

The poem ‘The Charge of the light brigade’ is written by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. His inspiration for writing the poem came after he read a article in The Times newspaper, but he was not actually in this battle. I think the poem is about the war with lots of men taking place in fighting. For […]
I believe that poets struggle to find their true identity as they might have an ongoing battle between two, as in ‘search for my tongue’, it is about the poet who has ‘two tongues in her mouth’ which symbolizes her two cultures, which displays her two identities. In the poem, there is an ongoing battle […]
