... on Leonard, but also on the world of music. After the young boy began to show an interest in the instrument, a neighbor offered to give him lessons, which lasted for about a year.

... sex with that woman. Many were outraged, many thought it was his personal business, and many just didn’t care. The nation became divided on what actions should be taken against a popular president that had just admitted to lying to his public and possibly lying under oath. Every constitutional scholar had an opinion about what constituted high crimes and misdemeanors. The 146th congress had to determine that for themselves, and in early January of 1999, William Jefferson Clinton was impeached. As the focus then turned to the Senate, many debates arose.

After reading the backround information on Bradstreet: the Puritan religion and the role of woman in that society, I question the sincerity of this poem. I wonder if it was written as a form of hidden sarcasm towards her husband, or maybe as one of the only acceptable means of expression for a female poet's heart.
