Blog Post # 6: The Anonymous Lady

My Reflections on - The Anonymous lady

I really enjoyed her writing style. The rhyme scheme in "A Letter to my Love..." creates cohesion through out the poem, which in turn, makes it a very uncomplicated poem to decipher. She is so effective in this particular work in expressing emotion. As I went through each line, I felt her anguish and pain, perhaps because this particular scenario is something we can all relate to at some point or another.
In her other poem, "On Being Charged with Writing Incorrectly", her style remains, which is a plus, I really enjoy that I don't have to turn the encyclopedia every other word to understand what is being said. I love that she stood up to the rigid writers, who lived by rules governed by the monarchs and such. She is so good at letting us know that if one cannot exercise freedom in writing, there is no joy in doing it and the end result is a dull piece of literature, which, no one can enjoy. She also makes it clear that it is not of her concern, whether the "mighty dull" and "mighty wise" hate her for her way of thinking and writing style.
