BEFORE THE ICE IS IN THE POOLS, by EMILY DICKINSON Poet Analysis Poet's Biography Last Line: Answer me to wear? Subject(s): Time | |||
Before the ice is in the pools - Before the skaters go, Or any check at nightfall Is tarnished by the snow - Before the fields have finished, Before the Christmas tree, Wonder upon wonder Will arrive to me! What we touch the hems of On a summer's day - What is only walking Just a bridge away - That which sings so - speaks so - When there's no one here - Will the frock I wept in Answer me to wear? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ELEVEN EYES: FINAL SECTION by LYN HEJINIAN THE FATALIST: COME OCTOBER by LYN HEJINIAN THE FATALIST: HOME by LYN HEJINIAN THE FATALIST: TIME IS FILLED by LYN HEJINIAN SLOWLY: I FREQUENTLY SLOWLY WISH by LYN HEJINIAN ALL THE DIFFICULT HOURS AND MINUTES by JANE HIRSHFIELD A DAY IS VAST by JANE HIRSHFIELD FROM THIS HEIGHT by TONY HOAGLAND FAITH' IS A FINE INVENTION by EMILY DICKINSON |
