“I had no portrait, now, but am small, like the wren; and my hair is bold, like the chestnut bur; and my eyes, like the sherry in the glass, that the guest leaves.”

American poet of the 19th century, Emily Dickinson is best known for her reclusive life and her distinctive, compressed verse. Her work explores themes of mortality, nature, and the soul with an unmatched precision and emotional depth.
