As I've resurrected my blog, it's time to resurrect my Poem of the Week.
Here's a quickie from Carol Ann Duffy's The World's Wife - a collection of poetry written from the point of view of the female consorts of many great male figures.
I'm reading a book about genes, evolution and natural selection at the moment, so this appealed. Hope you enjoy it!
Mrs Darwin by Carol Ann Duffy
7th April 1852
Went to the Zoo.
I said to Him –
Something about that Chimpanzee over there reminds me of
you.
I would love to know more on natural selection, but I never seem to get round to doing the research. Great poem pick for your blog resurrection. :)
