IDB Productions, 2017-01-01. MP3 CD. New. A lively and blissful poem of a song bird who wakes everyone up with her sweet, beautiful chirps. It possibly denotes glee and tranquility, where every now and then, us people, should be free from troubles and dilemmas. We are reminded that laughter and positivity extends our life span. </br></br>Christina Georgina Rossetti was born on December 5, 1830 and peacefully rested on December 29, 1894.

IDB Productions, 2017-01-01. MP3 CD. New. A poem full of emotions and longing for a loved one that she wishes for him to be visible into her gloomy dreams. She reminisces her memory, hope, love for the man she used to love and regrets losing him. Now she can only hear a sad echo resonating in her reveries. </br></br>Christina Georgina Rossetti was born on December 5, 1830 and peacefully rested on December 29, 1894.

IDB Productions, 2017-01-01. MP3 CD. New. Christina Georgina Rossetti admitted that the poem, which is often construed to contain elements of clear sensual visualizations, was not supposed for children. Although, in the open public, she freely specified that the poem was aimed for children, and kept on writing a number of children's poems. When the poem came into view in her first volume of poetry, Goblin Market and Other Poems, it has illustrations made by her brother, the Pre-Raphaelite artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti. </br></br>The poem's character to this lure appears vague, from the time when the perfect ending suggests the probability of recovery for Laura, while the emblematic Victorian renderings of the fallen woman fulfilled in the death of the fallen woman. It is observed that even if the past data is missing, she actually started working at Highgate Penitentiary for fallen women right away after she wrote Goblin Market in the spring of 1859. </br></br>Most… Read More

The author's non-linear poem about the billeting of soldiers in civilian homes in wartime. Copy 89 of a limited edition of 250. Folded into the form of a letter, the work was letterpress printed in wraps of handmade "combat paper" made from military uniforms. The author says: "Some time ago-maybe a year, maybe two? I had a conversation with some of my Combat Paper brothers (well, the kids call them their combat paper uncles, so it follows…) that led to me writing the poem "Quartering." Which was informed by them, of course, and by all the rooms I'm in, and by imagining what is really required of all the caregivers I love. It's a thought experiment: if we tore down the barracks at military hospitals and offered incentives for Americans in the surrounding neighborhoods to quarter injured service members, what would the honest instructions… Read More
