Does anyone have a favorite Emily Dickinson poem? I love her style but not been able to read much of her work yet.

"Snow flakes." is my favorite. The rhythm is very energetic and it reminds me that when I'm sitting back and observing others while I write... sometimes it makes you want to make the fun instead of write about it.

Emily Dickinson is definitely a favorite! Because she has so many poems, I recommend you look up a whole list and pick the one that fits the mood you have at the moment. Since her titles are usually very descriptive, I find this the easiest way to sort through her work.
