ON MY VOLCANO GROWS THE GRASS by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: Would populate with awe my solitude
Subject(s): SOLITUDE;

On my volcano grows the Grass
A meditative spot -
An acre for a Bird to choose
Would be the General thought -

How red the Fire rocks below
How insecure the sod
Did I disclose
Would populate with awe my solitude
