pick📖 5-9-22 || ✔️ My poetry pick for this month. This is a small selection of Dickinson‘s “most necessary poems”.
Intro by Joyce Carol Oates: “Dickinson‘s perspective was intensely private; she‘s the great poet of inwardness, of that indefinable region of the soul in which we are, in a sense, all one.“
Back to work from my Book Shopping Vacation. I finally found poetry I love and understand in this book. I never really got into poetry or realized how delightfully morbid Emily Dickinson was. #tea #poetry
I'm not a huge poetry person, but I've been trying to share a short poem with my children every couple of days. This one seems like it fits for Litsy, too.
Omg. I never realized how much I needed this in my life until after watching the trailer. A LESBIAN EMILY DICKINSON FILM! 😍💕📚 I can't seem to be able to copy and paste the link but its on youtube!
Great quote in my tea to start off the day #wordsofwisdom #offtowork #tgif
PBS has this kids show called Peg + Cat who always solve problems using counting and math. #Zeek is watching while I‘m reading Kindred and I had to stop because they have an episode with Emily Dickinson! She is having trouble writing a poem so Peg and Cat are trying to help her and they are talking about poetry patterns. Check it out if you have kids, or like Emily, or cats, or well you get it! 😍😍😍. http://pbskids.org/peg/videos #raisingreaders

I love Dickinson, and I can relate! I'm definitely a more private person, and I breathe a little easier in the solace of nature. My ramblings and attempts at profundity also sound rather odd to some people who try to understand me. So I've been told. But fun quiz!
I‘m Emily Dickinson, and you ?

"That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet." -Emily Dickinson I'll never fill my brain with enough of her words.
#litsypoetry365 I really need this poem today. As we say farewell to POTUS 44, it's helps not to let go of the audacity to hope.

Surgeons must be very careful
When they take the knife!
Underneath their five incisions
Stirs the culprit,--- Life!
Thought I'd throw some positivity out into the void.
"And never stops-at all"
There is no frigate
like a book
To take us
lands away... Emily Dickinson
