Notes About The Poem

Great Expectations - Cover Image

Great Expectations

Great hopes, high aspirations
Pip’s journey, transformation
Fortune sought, society’s call
Mistaken identity, a great fall
Unfulfilled promises, love’s plea
Hope remains, eternally

This poem attempts to weave together various themes from the Charles Dickens novel, with fantastic creative execution. It also adds unique spins on familiar themes, dear friend.

Alluding to the marrow of Dickens’ moral fibers in this beloved masterpiece of mine.
