National Poetry Month Begins!

Here is one of many poems by Emily Dickinson in the public domain. She speaks so directly and clearly.

VI.

If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.

Pink Robin (Petroica rodinogaster), Mount Field National Park, Tasmania, Australia
