Blackberrying by Sylvia Plath and Blackberry Picking by Seamus Heaney are about blackberries.

The title further […]

Mirror, by Sylvia Plath is one of the best examples to show how valid, vanity is in a woman’s life. I think this is one of, if not the oldest poem from all of which we have read. For a start her name, being Sylvia is quite old-fashioned and not often heard of now, but […]
