To say that Blake and Donne do not write uplifting poetry is a great injustice to their works. Although some of their poems discuss themes of depressing nature, on a wider scale both Blake and Donne write poetry which is not only uplifting but also inspiring and extremely worthwhile to read. Th...

What is forgiveness? To me forgiveness is somethning many people never learn in their lives. Forgiveness is to love someone in spitof all their short comings.
