Porphyria's Lover

This Victorian poem is one of the many dramatic monologues written by Robert Browning. Like many of these dramatic monologues, it is written in rhyming couplets and is told from the point of view of a dangerous, complex character. The name in the poem's title translates as 'purple', a colour associated with royalty. It is also the name of a disease that can cause madness.

Robert Browning

This Victorian poet was born in 1812 and died in 1889. He became known for dramatic monologues, often voiced by dark, troubled personas. He married one of the other poets in the 'Love and Relationships' cluster.

Winter Swans

This is a contemporary poem, taken from a collection by Owen Sheers called 'Skirrid Hill'. In Welsh, the word 'Skirrid' means 'shattered', but can also be interpreted as meaning 'divorced' or 'separate'.

Mother, any distance

This poem comes from a collection called 'Book of Matches', named because the poet intended for the poems to be read in the time it takes for a match to burn. Simon Armitage often writes about complex, universal ideas (family, growing up, etc.) using everyday events.

Sonnet 29 - 'I think of thee'

This poem is a sonnet: a regular, 14 line love poem. It was written by Elizabeth Barrett-Browning. Her husband, Robert Browning, urged her to publish her sonnets, even though they were deeply personal, and, for Victorian tastes, shockingly open, emotional and revealing. Even though women were expected to be demure, this poem bursts with emotion.

Singh Song!

This poem is about the merging of two cultures. The poet, Daljit Nagra, is a British Asian whose parents moved to the UK from India in the 1950s. His family opened a corner shop when they moved to Sheffield. In this light-hearted love poem, Nagra pokes fun at Indian stereotypes.

Walking Away

This poem is written about the poet's son. Like many of Cecil Day Lewis's poems, it uses images of nature to describe personal experiences. In this poem, the poet looks back on a memory from eighteen years ago that still 'gnaws' at him.

Love's Philosophy

This poem suggests there is a higher knowledge or wisdom about love than the thoughts and feelings of individual people, as though there are generally accepted, logical, unwritten laws about love. Shelley is suggesting that we are governed by these natural instincts.

Letters from Yorkshire

This poem was published in 2002. It deals with themes of longing, love and distance. It was written by Maura Dooley.

Climbing My Grandfather

This poem was written by Andrew Waterhouse. It uses an extended metaphor in which getting to know a family member in described in terms of climbing a mountain.

The Farmer's Bride
