aqa

If I remember right, sparknotes have good analysis on them

My go to was just to search “aqa poetry power and conflict analysis” (idk if you’re doing power and conflict or the love & relationships one) and just see what comes up!

Also Mr Salles English, Mr Bruff and Stacey Reay on YouTube were very good! (Recommend Mr Salles more out of them though!)

Looking through example essays and also seneca learning might have something on?

Here's a couple of posts that could help:
How to write literary analysis
How to write an analysis on sound in poetry
How to write an analysis on rhythm in poetry
Your guide to simile, metaphor, analogy and conceit
Your guide to paradox, oxymoron, antithesis and contrast

And some poetry close reading posts for reference:
A close reading of Maya Angelou's 'Still I Rise' and John Agard's 'Checking Out Me History'
A close reading of Ted Hughes' 'Hawk Roosting' and Sylvia Plath's 'Pheasant'
A close reading of Wilfred Owen's 'Insensibility' and Carol Ann Duffy's 'War Photographer'

I hope this helps!
