A Sindhi Woman by Jan Stallworthy

This poem is a tribute to a working woman. Work creates rhythm in life. Work keeps a person strong and vigilant. An idle person will soon decay. This poem also portrays realistically the slums of Karachi in a few works. The poet praises and appreciates the working woman who has practically turned her work into an art. The woman walks softly with the delicacy and rhythm of a dancer’s feet.

In the Street of the Fruit Stalls by Jan Stallworthy

This is a symbolic poem. The world is threatened with war, misery and poverty. But all these have failed to crush man’s love for pleasure. Children enjoy the sweet spray of the juice forgetting all about the misery they live in.

O Where are you Going? by W.H. Auden

Part of the anthology of unit for English Literature A level, 'O Where Are You Going' is a short poem by Auden  which is attempts to echo throughout time. 
The poem is a conversational between two people. The reader (being us) asks the 'rider' many questions with fears and tension building up. All questions are answered at the end where the 'rider' runs away leaving us in an attempt to confront our fears. An inspirational read, this poem can be interpreted many different ways (comment below with your interpretations!). Another interpretation is of a mother who is finding it difficult to let her child go. She portrays the world as a place full of fearfulness making child want to stay with the mother. However, the child confronts his fear of the world and leaves his mother at the end. There is no right or wrong answer to interpretation just as long as you can back it up with evidence from the poem!
