GLOWING IS HER BONNET by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: Pausing at the place
Subject(s): DEATH;

Glowing is her Bonnet,
Glowing is her Cheek,
Glowing is her Kirtle,
Yet she cannot speak.

Better as the Daisy
From the Summer hill
Vanish unrecorded
Save by tearful rill -

Save by loving sunrise
Looking for her face.
Save by feet unnumbered
Pausing at the place.
