A MURMUR IN THE TREES TO NOTE, by EMILY DICKINSON Poet Analysis Poet's Biography Last Line: No fear you'll miss the road Subject(s): Forests; Farewell | ||||||||
A Murmur in the Trees - to note - Not loud enough - for Wind - A Star - not far enough to seek - Nor near enough - to find - A long - long Yellow - on the Lawn - A Hubbub - as of feet - Not audible - as Ours - to Us - But dapperer - More Sweet - A Hurrying Home of little Men To Houses unperceived - All this - and more - if I should tell - Would never be believed - Of Robins in the Trundle bed How many I espy Whose Nightgowns could not hide the Wings - Although I heard them try - But then I promised ne'er to tell - How could I break My Word? So go your Way - and I'll go Mine - No fear you'll miss the Road. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE THREE CHILDREN by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN STUDY #2 FOR B.B.L. by JUNE JORDAN WATCHING THE NEEDLEBOATS AT SAN SABBA by JAMES JOYCE |
