Sylvia Plath (Oct 27, 1932 - February 11, 1963) and Ted Hughes (17 August 1930 - 28 October 1998) are known as some of the best poets ever. They composed with love and flare and their poetry brought open fire to the souls of the readers. I have always found that Hughes' last poetry reserve, "Birthday Letters", was, in a nutshell, an answer to the thoughts between him and Sylvia, those judging him on her behalf death, and, in a few small form, Sylvia's poetry. In this essay, I will be discovering the primary significances and relationships found between their poetry. I'll take two poems from each poet and evaluate each one, find the links between one and the other or, in some cases, their life.
