Hello, today I want to talk about a poem called “Solitude by Ella Wheeler Wilcox.” But before we getting into that, I want to explain who is Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox was born on 5th November 1850 on a farm in Johnstown, Winscosin. She was the youngest child in the family. Shoe started writing as an outlet when she was a 8 years old. Her style for her poetry is sentimental and romantic. During her lifetime, she was compared to Walt Whitman because of her feelings she poured into her writings. She died on 30th October 1919 because of cancer.
Now about her most popular poem, “Solitude.” The theme of this poem is a dramatisation of the tension between positive and negative attitude. The poem is confirming that negative attitude replies and the positive ones attract. I think what this poem is trying to say is that you have to keep yourself in a positive attitude if you want to gain something. I think it’s a very interesting poem to read.
