Emily Dickinson knew the art of image married to message. She should be read in a secluded place in your house and your heart.

Emily Dickinson was a master of deriving the most meaning from the briefest, most efficiently vivid and memorable lines. This is a classic reminder of that gift.

My all time favorite poet's timeless piece is shining as bright today as it was centuries back. In very few lines she said so much needs to be interpreted properly and it is all about this life to be lived perfectly so as to be a practice for the next.......amazing piece
