I THINK THAT THE ROOT OF THE WIND IS WATER by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: In the Atmosphere
Subject(s): WIND; WATER;
I think that the Root of the Wind is Water -
It would not sound so deep
Were it a Firmamental Product -
Airs no Oceans keep -
Mediterranean intonations -
To a Current's Ear -
There is a maritime conviction
In the Atmosphere
