Poetry
Donnes’ ‘The Sunne Rising’ is about a pair of lovers in bed being imposed upon by the morning sun. IT is typical of seventeenth century romantic poetry. Donne wrote for an elite circle of well-educated friends and his work sows the control men had over women at the time. Similarly ‘ To his Coy Mistress’…

The poem “My Box” written by Gillian Clarke is about a gift of a box from a man to a woman. The writer thinks that a box is a much better gift than any thing. Here I am trying to explain why she thinks that. ‘My box is made of golden oak, my lover’s gift…

‘Valentine’ and ‘My Box’ are two completely different poems. They are written differently, they are structured differently, but the one major thing they have in common is love.

Poetry
Brian was looking at the wall in his hospital room, thinking about life as it was now, compared to the life he lived before those fateful months in 1915, when his life changed forever. While he sat down peacefully in his wheelchair, he looked out of the window at the gloomy autumn scenery that was…

Wilfred Owen
The “old lie” is a term that was developed by Wilfred Owen. The phrase refers to the story that was told to soldiers and civilians of the day.
