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
