Emily Dickinson Phrasis Trilogy Recited Part 11
DICKINSON PHRASIS part 11
Today has been a fair day,
very still very blue.Tonight
the crimson children are
playing in the west.In that
pallid land the simple call
sleep,the wind blows its
gentle measure in my ear.
‘Tomorrow it will be cold’.
How sweet if I could see
you then.I would not repine,
knowing that bird of mine
though flown,learneth beyond
the sea,a melody new for me
and … will return.
Letters of Emily Dickionson ed Mabel Todd 1894
A Phrasis is a structured verse where the poet uses selected prose phrases of another writer’s (out of copyright) prose to compile unique poetry therefrom as a tribute thereto,the word phrasis is Greek for phrase.
