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

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.

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
