In Admiration of Emily Dickinson

I know I cannot be the only one
who reads Emily D. just for fun!

Quotes her feathery Hope poem
Understands it's ok not to roam

Not thinking her a fuddy-duddy
But rather, a true bosom buddy

Wished to taste her gingerbread
Wants to meet when we're dead

Considers her a kindred spirit :)
Imitates her style (or-- near it)!
