    heaven sent

    Words cannot describe how beautifully mastered this heaven sent but blunt poem is. It has it's own way of reaching people, for me it lifted not only my heart, but my soul as well.

  • understandably imaginative

    I felt this poem had a meaning of Emily Dickinson going through a certain trial or tribulation that had 2 options on which she couldn't reach a verdict on. She reveald to have an answer but it was too far out of reach for her to grasp.
    It is a poem I feel I can relate to that of which we all can relate to. In line 8 it defines how hard it is to pick up balls on a floor, but yet it can be done. Just with a little extra hard work.
