Day 93
Just for fun, and because there is little in the way of news today, I thought I might include the whole of Emily Dickenson's poem that I borrowed from for the title to this blog. She never titled any poem and wrote with unusual punctuation.
"Hope" is the thing with feathers –
That perches in the soul –
And sings the tune without the words –
And never stops – at all –
And sweetest – in the Gale – is heard –
And sore must be the storm –
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm –
I've heard it in the chillest land –
And on the strangest Sea –
Yet, never, in Extremity,
It asked a crumb – of Me.
