Talking in bed
I enjoyed this poem because I found that there was quite a lot of hidden meanings. Although to start off with I didn't really think that it was going to be a love poem but once I looked at in more detail I changed my mind. The poem sort of shows this feeling of enduring and lasting love. I got the wrong idea because you talk about all the silence and not talking but if you read in more detail you get more feeling of it being a relationship that has been a long lasting one and one that will be lasting for a long while and the silence is one that shows their comfort between one another. I think this gave a different aspect to Larkins other poems because it is about love and it is written in a less discreet way.
