To Emily

To Emily (Dickinson at Amherst)

You wrote a poem a day

and then put them  in a drawer.

having  quietly had your say

with nobody  asking why or  what for.

But since  you used  language with great dexterity

your thoughtful  poems were re- discovered by posterity

and  no  longer tucked inside.

they became  admired far and wide

 

Nowadays, we  would-be poets by the dozens of dozens

don't simply write for nieces and/or cousins

But shout out to the world as far the Internet may afford

but perhaps unfortunately, the great majority are still ignored

But genius or dunce

we  speak out at once

which  at least gives some  satisfaction anyway--

and  that's about all I'll   have to say  today..
