Any predictions for relationships poetry Question?


Has death been asked?
'In Paris With You', 'Brothers', and 'To His Coy Mistress' has never been asked before so these could be poems that come up

what could be the possible themes?
also i'm not sure if brothers will because apparently it's not one that allows A* students to get A*'s but that's what i've heard anyway????

I think brothers is an absolutely rubbish one to analyse, there's nothing there! I have also heard people at my school say it might be to his coy mistress

Yh i think that one is most likely to but if In paris with you hasn't i might like analyse both of them and think about how i would compare them because then if one comes up I know what to write and I can just compare them either way??
