EvaGreenWeb: ICYMI: Eva Green Reads an excerpt of Up-Hill By Christina Rossetti
Eve_Castle: When I am dead, my dearest,
Sing no sad songs for me;
Plant thou no roses at my head,
Nor shady cypress tree:
Be the green grass above me
With showers and dewdrops wet;
And if thou wilt, remember,
And if thou wilt, forget.
~Christina Rossetti, Song
OWC_Oxford: Christina Rossetti is perhaps the most contradictory of the great Victorian poets. She writes of the world's beauty, but fears that it may be deceptive, even deadly. She is a religious poet, but much of her work is driven by uncertainty.
BMSEnglish: This is a great resource to dip into. Our English Literature students study Christina Rossetti as part of the Poetry unit.
blooms_jewel: ~ Were there no God, we would be in this glorious world with grateful hearts & no one to thank. -Christina Rossetti

Christina Rossetti, 1892

LyndaPoetry: On the wind of January
Down flits the snow,
Travelling from the frozen North
As cold as it can blow.
Poor robin redbreast,
Look where he comes;
Let him in to feel your fire,
And toss him of your crumbs.
Christina Rossetti
WilbertNate: As Christina Rossetti (kind of) said, “Snow is falling! Snow on snow. Snow on snow.”
KatieHenryDays: Lyrics by Christina Rossetti:
LyndaPoetry: We sang our songs together by the way,
Calls and recalls and echoes of delight;
So communed we together all the day,
And so in dreams by night.
Christina Rossetti

JodyoCollins: Who Has Seen the Wind?
-CHRISTINA ROSSETTI
Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you:
But when the leaves hang trembling,
The wind is passing through.
Who has seen the wind?
Neither you nor I:
But when the trees bow down their heads,
The wind is passing by.

Her songs died on the air.

Frosty wind made moan,
Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow, Snow on snow,

WindgrassPress: I wear my mask for warmth: who ever shows
His nose to Russian snows
To be pecked at by every wind that blows?
You would not peck? I thank you for good will,
Believe, but leave the truth untested still.

teapourer: "My heart is like a singing bird
Whose nest is in a water'd shoot;
My heart is like an apple-tree
Whose boughs are bent with thick-set fruit;"
— Christina Rossetti (d. 1894)
My heart & head echoed the first line upon thinking of these images.
How dreamy...!

I shall not feel the rain;

HuntingRobert: "My heart is like a singing bird
Whose nest is in a water'd shoot;
My heart is like an apple-tree

Because my love is come to me."

Old and New Year Ditties, by Christina Rossetti
New Year met me somewhat sad:
Old Year leaves me tired,
Stripped of favourite things I had,
Baulked of much desired:
Yet farther on my road to-day

BehindTheArras: Christina Rossetti was right about a bleak midwinter but vaccines do at least give hope for the future, so can we take this opportunity to wish for a safe, peaceful and happier New Year for our readers, and indeed everyone, and a hope that theatre lights will shine again soon.
cmbainbridge: "The Haunting of Tram Car 015" (P Djèli Clark). So much fun. Really needs to be a TV series!
"In an absent dream" (Seanan McGuire). Inspired by the he Christina Rossetti poem Goblin Market. The nature of friendship and belonging.

Haply I may remember,
And haply may forget. — Christina Rossetti
