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. Listen to me recite this phrasis trilogy on youtube under my pen name ichcthyschiro
