Audrey Haick Poet Free verse

Elizabeth Barret Browning

A poet with a loving Spirit...
A heart rich with abundant love, overflowing
So much love did her heart retain 
An abolitionist she chose to become
In spite of its unpopularity 
Through all her relationships, graceful, caring
Always kind and gentle as a dove
Had no recourse but to pen emotions deep 
Writing great, timeless sonnets of love 
Inspired by the love of her life
Throughout her years, she drew inspiration from above

L'Nass Shango February 9, 2010 at 9:49 AM Well told for a noble soul ... Robert was fortunate to have a woman who knew love and how to love so well. I am fortunate to be able to read one with so much vulnerability to the urges of love.

Carolyn Devonshire January 9, 2010 at 10:37 AM What a terrific recount of Browning's life and times. Indeed, she "drew inspiration from above," Audrey and has passed her inspired pen on to you! Love, Carolyn
