He had on a pair of black leather gloves‚ the calfskin supple and pliable.

In the poem‚ “One Art‚ written by Elizabeth Bishop‚ the poet writes about how losing is very easy and does not take much to accomplish.

Not only from woman to woman‚ but from poet to poet‚ Elizabeth Barrett Browning felt a connection of reverence and utmost admiration with self-titled George Sand.
