A Drop Fell on the Apple Tree —
Another — on the Roof —
A Half a Dozen kissed the Eaves —
And made the Gables laugh —
A few went out to help the Brook
That went to help the Sea —
Myself Conjectured were they Pearls —
What Necklace could be —
The Dust replaced, in Hoisted Roads —
The Birds jocoser sung —
The Sunshine threw his Hat away —
The Bushes — spangles flung —
The Breezes brought dejected Lutes —
And bathed them in the Glee —
Then Orient showed a single Flag,
And signed the Fete away —
hi its been 16 years since you left this comment
its talking about rain
I think it is about people coming together.yo
she is really just describing when its raining… and the rain can be interpreted a lot of different ways
You guys are so blind there is no deeper meaning. She is discribing a time when it is raining!!!
I think this poems about one of her relationsships that has some problems a rough patches in it.
This poem is one of her different poems, she is talking about her dropping apples from trees.
I really like this poem and i think its about her wanting more, like when she talks about pearls.
An interesting poem. Emily writes so well! Thanks for this web site.
