Poemas de Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson fue una reconocida poeta estadounidense del siglo XIX. A lo largo de su vida, escribió cientos de poemas que exploraban temas como el amor, la muerte, la naturaleza y la soledad. Su estilo único y su enfoque introspectivo la convirtieron en una de las figuras más destacadas de la poesía moderna. A continuación, te presentamos algunos de sus poemas más famosos:

Poema 1: "Hope is the thing with feathers"

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.

I've heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.

Poema 2: "Because I could not stop for Death"

Because I could not stop for Death –
He kindly stopped for me –
The Carriage held but just Ourselves –
And Immortality.

We slowly drove – He knew no haste
And I had put away
My labor and my leisure too,
For His Civility –

We passed the School, where Children strove
At Recess – in the Ring –
We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain –
We passed the Setting Sun –

Or rather – He passed Us –
The Dews drew quivering and chill –
For only Gossamer, my Gown –
My Tippet – only Tulle –

We paused before a House that seemed
A Swelling of the Ground –
The Roof was scarcely visible –
The Cornice – in the Ground –

Since then – 'tis Centuries – and yet
Feels shorter than the Day
I first surmised the Horses' Heads
Were toward Eternity –

Poema 3: "I'm Nobody! Who are you?"

I'm Nobody! Who are you?
Are you – Nobody – too?
Then there's a pair of us!
Don't tell! they'd advertise – you know!

How dreary – to be – Somebody!
How public – like a Frog –
To tell one's name – the livelong June –
To an admiring Bog!

Estos son solo algunos ejemplos de la vasta obra poética de Emily Dickinson. Sus versos continúan inspirando a generaciones de lectores y su legado perdura como uno de los más importantes en la historia de la literatura.
