    Hi all,
    Im unsure if there was a thread made out this before but im really hoping you all can help me! I have been reading through my revise wise english higher level book and it says on studied poetry to know-
    A love poem, a relationships poem, a war poem, a conflict poem, a nature poem, a childhood poem, a death poem.

    So far I have properly studied-
    Relationships- The thickness of ice by Liz loxley
    War- Dulce et decorum est pro patria moi
    Death- Midterm break.

    Do you think it would be possible to use the thickness of ice for my love poem too? Midterm break for my conflict poem?

    What childhood, nature and love poems are you all doing?

    Thank you!! :)

    A poem like 'Funeral Blues' could easily be used for death, relationships, love and nature.

    Mid term break could be considered childhood as well,keep that on mind.

    (Little note:- there's a small chance of a poet question coming up where you might want to talk about more then one poem.)

    My class personally does:
    Mid-Term Break - Death/Childhood/Poet
    Early Purges - Death/Childhood/Poet
    Sonnet 20 - Love
    Dulce et Decorum Est - Relationship/War/Death - Conflict I suppose?
    Going Home to Mayo, Winter 1949 - Family/Personal/Childhood/Conflict? between Dublin & Mayo?
    Tich Miller - Childhood/Relationships.
