Happy Birthday, Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson was born on December 10, 1830.   She is one of my favorite poets.

Here is one of hers:

I DIED for beauty, but was scarce
Adjusted in the tomb,
When one who died for truth was lain
In an adjoining room.
He questioned softly why I failed?	5
“For beauty,” I replied.
“And I for truth,—the two are one;
We brethren are,” he said.
And so, as kinsmen met a night,
We talked between the rooms,	10
Until the moss had reached our lips,
And covered up our names. The Dickinson family house in Amherst Massachusetts.  Someday I will get there to visit.
