My poetry anthology is a collection of poems that I thoroughly enjoy and relate too. There is no set theme in my poetry anthology. Despite having no set theme, love is a frequent theme in my poetry anthology. Love is a frequent theme because I am a clichéd hopeless romantic who simply loves anything to do with love. Some of the greatest poems come from those who are in love, take W.B Yeats for example who writes of his unrequited love for Maud Gonne. There's a quote that says all lovers are poets and I believe certain poems in my anthology portrays this.

This poem's a great representation of that. I also enjoyed how it portrayed the reassurance given by the new partner. To Fathers With Daughters by Rupi Kaur
I'm a fan of assertive methods and strongly oppose against any form of physical and verbal abuse. Often, I believe men, in particular, raise their voice loudly too frequently towards their children and this poem is written for those who do. I picked this poem because it's one that needs to be heard. We're All Fragile, Us Humans by Matt Haig
I picked this poem for my poetry anthology because I'm passionate about human rights and equality. Like the previous poem, this is a poem that I believe needs to be heard.
Welcome by Rupi Kaur
I really just like the poet Rupi Kaur and wanted to give her more exposure in my poetry anthology because I believe she's deserving of it. I picked this poem at random, but looking back, I can see why and that's simply because it's true. I Kissed A Feminist Once by Lily Cigale
This is my favorite poem in my poetry anthology. I believe it portrays the ignorance of someone who views a person as no more than a feminist, which often, society does. We are objectified by our beliefs and causes, not by who we are.
