ON THE BLEAKNESS OF MY LOT by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: Fructified in Sand
Subject(s): GARDENS & GARDENING;

On the Bleakness of
my Lot
Bloom I strove to raise -
Late - my Garden of a
Rock
Yielded Grape - and Maise -
Soil of Flint, if
steadfast tilled steady tilled
Will reward the Hand -
Seed of Palm, by
Lybian Sun
Fructified in Sand
