How tender & beautiful, just like her. You always touch the magic.

This is so like Emily Dickinson's I am wondering if you have channeled Emily Dickinson's mind in your sleep?

Always wanted to meet E.D. Would she be dull? Who knows? She'd be shy, almost for sure... :) gw

Gershon, True to form. Glad this poem isn't confined to any drawer. -Richard

Really can't think of a better place than that. We should start a poem reading, once a month, for all of our special poets. I would start with some of the poems by Carol Sunshine Brown. -Richard

So, kind of you, Richard...though I imagine my poems will wind up at the bottom of my kids' drawers when I'm gone. Smiles, Gershon

This is very lovely, Gershon! I love the poetry of Emily Dickinson, and I've added this to my faves. Thanks for sharing. :)

Thank you so much for the FAVE, Evelyn... Emily D. is my absolute all-time #1 favorite poet ever. (That's enough hyperbole, I guess. But I'm in awe of her poetry). Cheers, Gershon
