Some Emily Dickinson Poetry




Here are some of my favorite poems by Emily Dickinson:

A face devoid of love or grace,
A sloop of amber slips away
A thought went up my mind to-day
He touched me, so I live to know
Heart, we will forget him!
I took my power in my hand
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
If you were coming in the fall,
I'm Nobody! Who are you?
Much Madness is divinest Sense --
Nature rarer uses yellow
Not with a club the heart is broken
She rose to his requirement, dropped
The reticent volcano keeps
The soul unto itself
The way I read a letter's this:
They say that "time assuages"--
This is my letter to the world,
To fight aloud, is very brave,
We never know how high we are
You left me, sweet, two legacies, --
