Hi ChinaRose. We haven't talked in a while. Nice to see you again. I remember liking a few poems by Emily Bronte but I just can't remember now what they were. So i did an internet search. Her complete poetry is out there, but I can't seem to find one that really overwhelms me. She was a young lady and probably needed more time to mature with her writing. She did write one of the best novels of the 19th century. Wuthering Heights is a great novel. Why don't you post one of her poems you think highly? Here's a website with all her poems: http://emilybronte.org/poems/

Let me post one. It reminds me of me!

The Old Stoic
by Emily Bonte

Riches I hold in light esteem,
And Love I laugh to scorn;
And lust of fame was but a dream,
That vanished with the morn:

And if I pray, the only prayer
That moves my lips for me
Is, “Leave the heart that now I bear,
And give me liberty!”

Yes, as my swift days near their goal:
‘Tis all that I implore ;
In life and death a chainless soul,
With courage to endure.

Hey.Nice to meetyou.Thank you for reminding me posting her poems here.

And I am going to do it now

This poem remind me also.
But sometimes I just feel Emily just depressed her feeling. Because she is so fragile. maybe she just seeks encourage .
