    Stanford and University of California alumni Sandra Lim reads from The Wilderness on April 7, 2015, at Prairie Lights. As an alumna from the International Writing Program Lim was making her return back to Iowa City after 11 years. In The Wilderness Lim reads a collection of poems about love, spring and one poem that caught my attention was about the individual struggle of one's body within one’s mind. The poems are open to many interpretations but that is the way that I chose to interpret that poetry in particular. The interesting thing about Lim’s poem is how describes the body parts in some of her poems. It is very vague. It almost makes me feel a little bit uncomfortable but at the same time, I really like her style. The way she describes…

    Maude Clare is a poem with simple language, yet many complex interpretations; and mysterious narrators. The language suggests the time period in which the poem was written, and the traditional ballad structure connotes the Victorian era of poetry, as well as the tragic theme of love implying the pre Raphaelite age.…

    The short poem, “Sadie and Maud” by Gwendolyn Brooks compares the lives of two sisters who chose different paths growing up. From the beginning to the end you can tell that the lives of Sadie and Maud were drastically different. Sadie seems to be the extroverted sister that loved to get all the fun that life can offer. While Maud went to college Sadie stayed home and had kids out of wedlock, which was a big shock to Maud and their parents. While everyone seemed to think that Sadie was the shame to the family she didn’t regret not a single thing she did in her life leaving behind what to her was a life worth living. Maud, the more introverted sister, went to college and became more of a quiet little mouse. Maud didn’t take advantage of every…

    The poem The Century Quilt by Marilyn Nelson Waniek serves as a nostalgic reflection of the history of a cherished quilt, which connects the speaker’s life to her diverse heritage. Wainek’s use of enjambment, personification, and colorful imagery develops a speaker and a character that demonstrates affection for the quilt’s qualities and reveals a more complex underlying message about the quilt’s impact on how the speaker perceives her life and family.…

    From the beginning of the poem you can see the cottage maiden was in love with the Lord she calls him ‘a great Lord’ and asks herself ‘Why did a great Lord find me out to fill my heart with care?’ She’s admitting he filled her heart with care, but by asking why, she’s saying he hurt her.

    The works we studied within Creative Writing were all helpful in creating my own works to submit to the class. Throughout all of the reading, many of the works inspired me in different ways, whether it was short story plot ideas or word usage in the poems. While crafting my work for the final portfolio, I reviewed many of the poems from our poetry packet in an effort to find inspiration and to create new interesting images. I took the most inspiration for my formal poem, which I found most difficult to write. One of the poems that was most useful to me was Jilly Dybka’s “Memphis, 1976.” Dybka’s poem follows the sestina form; I also wrote my last poem in this form, so it helped to follow the form by looking at her poem as an example. Dybka’s…

    In the captivating play ‘Twelfth Night’ by William Shakespeare, an insight into intense relationships has been presented between two individuals. This theme also refers to relationships during the Elizabethan era, in the sixteenth century which were refined according to statues. I feel that Orsino and Olivia are two characters who embrace an inadequate relationship due to the fact that Olivia doesn’t appreciate Orsino’s love. Twelfth night can be compared with two literary heritage poems by Robert Burns and William Butler Yeats by conferring to their similarities and differences. Both poems develop on the aspects of how relationships are passionately made and how they can be potentially demolished. ‘A Red, Red Rose’, by Robert Burns emphasises on a true and long-lasting relationship in which a lot of dedication is conveyed towards adoring love. Conversely, ‘He wishes for the cloths of heaven’, by William Butler Yeats is based on two characters of which one’s love is neglected due to differentiation as he is poor, and therefore his dreams are shattered.…
