I'll be writing about some of them soon.<br /><br /><br />Elizabeth Varadan, Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01708206753256682635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-618662835458105757.post-31142405332430680852013-06-20T05:53:47.396-07:002013-06-20T05:53:47.396-07:00Fascinating blog and uber-interesting info!

Tennyson is one of my favourites though Wordsworth is probably my all time favourite. He's so mystical.

I'm glad for him, and I'm glad for myself that he was so prolific!

It seems that most poets must die to be appreciated! He was as beloved then as he is now. I see his poems everywhere today and still relate to his reflections on life.
