Carmina's Poetry Tease

Book excerpt: 'Carmina's Poetry Tease' presents a small collection of poetry by Carmina Masoliver, some of which was compiled whilst studying English Literature at UEA. Finding her name means 'poetry' in a 17th Century textbook, some may say Carmina is destined to a life of poetry - whether a blessing or a curse. Her full name is known by few to be a perfect example of an amphibrachic tetrameter. Here you will find poems about childhood, fairy-tales, and the nature of love, as well as those that comment on contemporary culture, morality, and stereotypes. Her words are emotive and personal, yet relate to universal experiences with which everyone can identify. She gives a taste of what she hopes for future publications, combining poetry for both the page and the stage. She is currently studying a Creative Entrepreneurship MA at UEA and lives with her parents in South West London.
