      The Brontes, The Poetry Of - Anne Bronte

      The Poetry Of The Brontes

      Poetry is a fascinating use of language.  With almost a million words at its command it is not surprising that these Isles have produced some of the most beautiful, moving and descriptive verse through the centuries.  In this series we look at poets who have shaped and influenced their craft and cement their place in our heritage.

      Of course the Bronte’s are perhaps England’s greatest literary family.  To find one brilliant novelist in a family is extremely rare.  But two?  Three?  The Bronte sisters, Charlotte, Emily Jane and Anne together with their brother Patrick are famed throughout the World.  Their lives were short, their output really quite small buttheir influence and effect of generations since has been and continues to be immense.  Almost forgotten amongst the literary jewels is another talent; that of poetry.  Of course being Bronte’s they were rather good at that too. 

      Many of the poems are also available as an audiobook from our sister company Portable Poetry.  Many samples are at our youtube channel   http://www.youtube.com/user/PortablePoetry?feature=mhee   The full volume can be purchased from iTunes, Amazon and other digital stores.  Among our readers are David Shaw Parker, Richard Mitchley and Ghizela Rowe

      Cold in the earth - and the deep snow piled above thee!

      Far, far removed, cold in the dreary grave!

      Have I forgot, my only Love, to love thee,

      Severed at last by Time's all-severing wave?

      Now, when alone, do my thoughts no longer hover

      Over the mountains on Angora's shore;

      Resting their wings where heath and fern-leaves cover

      That noble heart for ever, ever more?

      Cold in the earth - and fifteen wild Decembers

      From those brown hills have melted into spring:

      Faithful, indeed, is the spirit that remembers

      After such years of change and suffering!

      Sweet Love of youth, forgive, if I forget thee

      While the world's tide is bearing me along;

      Sterner desires and darker hopes beset me,

      Hopes which obscure but cannot do thee wrong.

      No other Sun has lightened up my heaven;

      No other Star has ever
