Emily Dickinson:

A Bird Came Down
A_door_just_opened_on_a_street
A_light_exists_in_spring
A_little_road_not_made_man
A long, long sleep, a famous sleep
A_thought_went_up_my_mind_to-day
After_a_hundred_years
An_everywhere_of_silver,
Because_I_could_not_stop_for_Death,
Before_you_thought_of_spring,
Death_sets_a_thing_of_signigicant
Delight_becomes_pictorial
Departed_to_the_judgment
Each_life_converges_to_some_centre
For_each_ecstatic_instant
God_gave_a_loaf_to_every_bird,
God_made_a_little_gentian;
God_permit_industrious_angels
Heaven_is_what_I_cannot_reach!
Her_final_summer_was_it,
Hope_is_the_thing_with_feathers
My_life_closed_twice_before_its_close;
My_nosegays_are_for_captives;
Nature_rarer_uses_yellow
Nature,_the_gentlest_mother,
Not_in_this_world_to_see_his_face
Of_all_the_souls_that_stand_create
One_need_not_be_a_chamber_to_be_haunted,
Our_journey_had_advanced
Pain_has_an_element_of_blank
Presentiment_is_that_long_shadow_on_the_lawn
Safe_in_their_alabaster_chambers,
She_rose_to_his_requirement,_dropped
She_sweeps_with_many-colored_brooms,
So_bashful_when_I_spied_her,
So_proud_she_was_to_die
The_braind_within_its_groove
The_bustle_in_a_house
The_cricket_sang,
The_day_came_slow,_till_five_o'_clock
The_dying_need_but_little,_dear,--
The_heart_asks_pleasure_first
The_nearest_dream_recedes,_unrealized.
The_only_ghost_I_ever_saw
The_pedigree_of_honey
The_show_is_not_the_show,
The_sky_is_low,_the_clouds_are_mean,
The_wind_begun_to_rock_the_grass
The_wind_trapped_like_a_tired_man,
There_is_no_frigate_like_a_book
There's_a_certain_slant_of_light,
There's_been_a_death_in_the_opposite_house
They_dropped_like_flakes
They_say_that_'time_assuages,'--
This_is_my_letter_to_the_world,
This_is_the_land_the_sunset_washes
