“In lands I never saw, they say, Immortal Alps look down,Whose bonnets touch the firmament,Whose sandals touch the town, ―Meek at whose everlasting feetA myriad daisies play.Which, sir, are you, and which am I.Upon an August day?”

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.
