Comment 1 of 1, added on March 14th, 2005 at 7:10 PM.

I believe that this poem is about deaths of close friends or family
members. I am doing a research project on emily dickinson and i have come
across information about deaths in her family in a 6 year period. there is
a bio on her on this site and if you want to find more information about
dickinson, you should check it out.
