Classic and Contemporary Poetry

IF I SHOULDN'T BE ALIVE by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: With my Granite lip!  
Subject(s): CEMETERIES;
If I shouldn't be alive

When the Robins come,

Give the one in Red Cravat,

A Memorial crumb -

If I couldn't thank you,

Being fast asleep,

You will know I'm trying

With my Granite lip!
