Emily–An Acrostic Golden Shovel
It’s easy to invent a life …
by Paulette Demers Turco

Eternity surrounds her. It’s
Murmurs of rippling streams, the easy
Infinity of garden strolls to
Linger among wild scents–invent
Yearnings of poet, bee, a
Devoted ecstasy–for life.




Poem #41 "From the The Further Poems of Emily Dickinson
(Little, Brown, And Company, 1929), edited by Martha Dickinson Bianchi and Alfred Leete Hampson.")
