Today is a belated sponsorship HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the lovely Emily Dickinson, who has been dead for quite some time, but remains a major influence on modern poetry. In her own words...
I hide myself within my flower,
That wearing on your breast,
You, unsuspecting, wear me too-
And angels know the rest.
I hide myself within my flower,
That, fading from your vase,
You, unsuspecting, feel for me
Almost a loneliness.
Happy birthday, Emily, wherever you are, and thanks to
dormouse_in_tea for this sponsorship!
