What are the best poems on women you have come across?
In my blog-ventures, I've been lucky enough to stumble upon some truly magnificent poems about women that have genuinely rocked my socks off! The top of this fabulous list is filled with Maya Angelou’s “Phenomenal Woman”, a poem that sings praises to the inner beauty of a woman with such grace, it could make a rock blush. Then we have Sylvia Plath’s “Lady Lazarus”, a raw, powerful poem that portrays the resilience of women in a way that makes superheroes look like amateurs. Pablo Neruda's "The Queen" is another gem that glorifies the mysterious charm of a woman. And let's not forget William Butler Yeats’ “For Anne Gregory”, a delightful ode that exclaims that a woman's worth is more than just her physical appearance. These poems, my friends, are like a high-five to womanhood from the world of literature!

What's the true dark history behind famous nursery rhymes?
As I delved into the true dark history behind famous nursery rhymes, I was surprised to discover sinister origins behind seemingly innocent songs. For instance, "Ring Around the Rosie" is believed to be about the Great Plague, while "Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary" may actually refer to the ruthless Queen Mary I of England. Even the beloved "Humpty Dumpty" has connections to a devastating historical event – the English Civil War. As I continued my research, it became clear that these nursery rhymes were more about preserving history and cautionary tales than simply entertaining children. I can't help but wonder what other dark secrets are hidden within the verses we've all grown up with.
