Emily Dickinson - Snow flakes.

Snow flakes.

I counted till they danced so
Their slippers leaped the town,
And then I took a pencil
To note the rebels down.
And then they grew so jolly
I did resign the prig,
And ten of my once stately toes
Are marshalled for a jig!

So um Rylie i think its funny that you like to sit and read poetry naked. Um i have to wonder does it turn you on? to me i really actually think the poem is not about winter either however it is joyful and i think that you should really stop telling people you read poetry naked.. it might give someone the wrong idea... you can still do it just dont write about it lol

I love this poem. I have to recite one poem of my pick by Emily Dickinson and i chose this one because it caught my eye. When i read it i was like who there is a lot of feeling in this one small poem. I hope the students in my class like it as much as i do.
