Making Nature Sacred, Lindsey Ceniviva

While discussing our text, Making Nature Sacred, the poet Anne Bradstreet was mentioned. She was a poet whom I studied very intently at my previous institution. She was a very well educated woman of her time and came to America during the "Great Migration". She fell ill and eventually became paralyzed. Despite many hardships, Bradstreet remained faithful to the scriptures and kept her devotion alive. Her education and decent social standing allowed her to write on a variety of topics including politics, theology, and history. The main poem i have focused on before was, To My Dear and Loving Husband. This poem spoke about the unconditional and passionate love Anne and her husband shared. It is a strong and romantic poem expressing their lovely and eternal relationship. Anne Bradstreet was a beautiful poet and should be noticed for her unique and descriptive works of art.
