    1. My initial reaction to this piece was a mix of sadness‚ disgust and confusion. I didn’t think it was possible for a mother to neglect their child to such extremes.

I have five brothers; four are half brothers and two I’ve never met. If I found out any one of them was in trouble‚ there is no doubt in my mind I would

    Ozymandias Percy Bysshe Shelley was a rebel from the British upper class. He was married to Harriet Westbrook‚ and friend with Byron.

The poem is an Italian sonnet‚ and describes the remains of a ancient "glorious" ruin seen by a common "traveler from an antique land"(1). The subject of Shelley’s poem is more subtle than it seems. Found in the multitude of Romantic

    Maxine Kumin definitely has a very shocking way of portraying her poetry. It can easily be seen that she has a deep love for nature and animals. However‚ it goes to a much further distance than your average person. In the poem “Morning Swim” and “To Swim‚ to Believe” she describes swimming‚ as obviously mentioned in the title. In “Morning Swim” she describes becoming one with the body of water as she travels through it. In “To Swim‚ to Believe” she describes Jesus walking on the water‚ as described
