  1. Emily Dickinson By: Courtney Dean

  2. “A Light Exists in the Spring”By: Emily Dickinson A light exists in spring   Not present on the yearAt any other period.   When March is scarcely hereA color stands abroad   On solitary hillsThat science cannot overtake,   But human nature feels.It waits upon the lawn;   It shows the furthest treeUpon the furthest slope we know;   It almost speaks to me.Then, as horizons step,   Or noons report away,Without the formula of sound,   It passes, and we stay:A quality of loss   Affecting our content,As trade had suddenly encroached   Upon a sacrament.

  3. Emily Dickinson Poem Details Though not every rhyme is exact, Dickinson also carries an A-B-C-B rhyme scheme through the entire poem. Much of her poetry is heavily rhythmic, with regular meter and rhyme. • Emily Dickinson was an American Poet. She was born in Amherst, Massachusetts. She studied at Amherst Academy for seven years in her youth. Although Dickinson was a prolific private poet, fewer than a dozen of her nearly eighteen hundred poems were published during her lifetime.
