Emily Dickinson
Prelude
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,--
Some one the sum could tell,--
This, and my heart, and all the bees
Which in the clover dwell.
[SOURCE: Dickinson, Emily. 1896. Poems.]
"The soul goes round upon a wheel of stars and all things
return....Good and evil go round in a wheel that is one
thing and not many. Do you not realise in your heart, do you
not believe behind all your beliefs, that there is but one
reality and we are its shadows; and that all things are but
aspects of one thing; a centre where men melt into Man
and Man into God?..."
