EMILY DICKINSON, my most favourite Classic Poets of all time, gives me with this poem enormous JOY and YOUTH, as if she is still alive. Poems can do wonders
TWO: Here, the poet explores themes of nature, rebirth or revitalization, and liveliness/life. The poem emphasizes the transformative nature of rain in a dry, summer environment. Throughout the mood is uplifting and lighthearted.
ONE: A drop fell on the apple tree' by Emily Dickinson is filled with joy. It describes, with ED's classic skill, images of the summer season and how a storm can influence it.
I wrote about snowflakes nourishing the apples Now you speaketh to me. Missed reading this.
A Drop Fell On The Apple Tree I have enjoyed watching the rain pearls along the clothes-line for so many times when it rains....rain drops are not pearls in Emily's words..but diamonds..superb-10 (Repor
There is something particularly charming about this poem- - she gives us such unique phrases and words used in different contexts.- - - A half a dozen kissed the eaves, And made the gables laugh.- - - - - - The sunshine threw his hat away, The orchards spangles hung.
Emily's love of nature is so embodied in her verse. It resonates so charmingly as she teaches us how to look at a simple rain shower through her eyes.
Beautiful portrayal of the charms of nature as it appears in a drizzle. Thanks. A drop fell on the apple tree / Another on the roof A few went out to help the brook / That went to help the sea.
Fantastic flight of imagery and a wonderful style have created this wonderful poem that is a pleasure to read. Thanks for sharing it here.

........a very nice write....love the theme and the title...especially the title...enjoyed..
Marvelously entertaining and very proactive, in terms of her 'twist of fate' of the poem's theme, in the last few lines.
An interesting creation nicely put together with beautiful rhyme scheme
