Emily

Emily

A wordsmith thou shalt be
Taciturn recluse Emily
Such demons possessed
A quill angelic blessed
Β 
Tis a spiritual decree
Bard ascetic Emily
Prolific inspirations writ
Virtuoso endowed befit
Β 
Coveted verses thou destiny
Expiry yesteryear Emily
Notions beguiled a gifted mind
Revered prose yode behind

Hello Poetess...

Brilliant writer...

We did a lot of study on her through my School years because she was Native in my Birth State...

Original and she had integrity...

Poetry was class and misunderstood yet, challenged our understanding mind...

Great write!

Great Tribute!

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...

Little Sparrow,
I have read three books of her poetry and the latest one had a biography of her life. The author believes she may have had epilepsy because in her letters to her pen pals she would talk about her fits or as she said delicate maladies. She was a reclusive because of her health. it would have been great to know her, you know that saying about who would you invite to dinner if you could dead or alive? she would be my top pick.Β
