It’s all I have to bring today
It’s all I have to bring to-day
by Emily Dickinson
It’s all I have to bring to-day,
This, and my heart beside,
This, and my heart, and all the fields,
And all the meadows wide.
Be sure you count, should I forget, –
Someone the sum could tell, –
This, and my heart, and all the bees
Which in the clover dwell.

Hello your piece is okay.
stephdakidd@yahoo.com
this piece is pretty good, but it could be alot better put a little more heart into it.
I love ur poem…It demonstrates the lurve between romantic lovers…….:P
i agree with the smart person who realizes that this poet is dead. lol… but i also agree with the idiots in that i don\’t really like it but its all a matter of taste.
I can\’t believe some of you don\’t know who Emily Dickinson is…she is so awesome. Her poems may not be sing-song, but they are surely from the heart!
Are you people chatting or what?
OMG! some people are so stupid! Wonder what they\’d say about Shakespeare?
i love this poem its so nice and its a clasiics i love it
I think its hillarious people say they can do better at writing a poem. especially comparing with classic writers.
I am old, and it frightens me to think the young have leared so little from the immortal words of someone like Dickinson. If you can read this poem and miss the obvious statement that her love is limitless, then you will miss so much of life?
Our vast universe is too small to contain,
What all lovers seek to gain.
But if your efforts are just a smidgin,
You\’ll mistake a Dove, for a pidgeon.
How can you say put more feeling into it? The only person who truly understands the exact meaning of the poem is the poet, you can\’t tell them to put more feeling into it, when thats how they feel. If you really think you can write a better poem than Dickinson did then why don\’t you show us, instead of putting down a classic that you don\’t understand.
Whats she\’s saying is that she\’s giving everything she has, correct? That\’s how much she loves this person she\’s thinking of. But somehow it\’s not enough.
A poet\’s work should not be critisized,
for it always is part of their soul.
And if you shouldn\’t take like of it,
why then, don\’t say anything at all.
Emily Dickinson was and still is cherished because she was an amazing poet. She self exiled herself to better understand the world without human\’s disastrous and conforming ways of life. She did without many things such as a family in order to put down on paper her unique versions of the beauties in life. So don\’t judge what you don\’t know… If you have issues with how this amazing poet wrote or didn\’t write her poems then just remember this. Emily Dickenson wrote because doing so was her passion, not to please you.
this poem is written by myself,i\\\’m iranian,so I had to send it for u in this way:
love is just a word,so use it when you\\\’re bored;
I use it in my mind,it is hide;I love sb else,I KNOW U LOVE ME;so keep it hardly;I have used to say goodbye;but i can\\\’t tell you bye;i can\\\’t understand my feeling;i love u or not….
(tell me is it beautiful or not,send it to my gmail)
