Remember: Christina Georgina Rossetti

What is the theme of this sonnet?
What clues gave away the theme?
How does this message apply or connect to your own life?
How can you connect this theme to other poem we have read?

The theme of this sonnet is remembering thing that she wanted him to remember like the love they have like Christina Georgina say in her sonnet.

REMEMBER me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,

That show how she feels about him. The message it's apply or connect to her own life is that Christina show how much she loves him in many way that she explains. We connect this theme to other sonnet we have read because of the emotion they show and how they miss each other or thinking of them where ever they are.

Bronx Masquerade

Chankara is the girl that got slap by her boyfriend last night. This happen last night when they were home alone her mother was working so they were their. After that Tyrone started to unbutton her shirt and then she push him gently then she told him to live as he left he grab her and slap Chankara. Chankara says that "My sister's boyfriend have been beating on her for years" she also said that "I looked in his eyes and saw my sister's reflection " that explain how she know that her sister get hit by her boyfriend. The next day she says "now I've got this ugly tattoo on my cheek" that show that her hit is a tattoo for her.
I can infer about the poem "Bruise Love" that she know that her sister get beaten up by her boyfriend a lot like the poem talk about.
