Analysis of It's all I have to bring today
Emily Dickinson 1830 (Amherst) – 1886 (Amherst)
It's all I have to bring today—
This, and my heart beside—
This, and my heart, and all the fields—
And all the meadows wide—
Be sure you count—should I forget
Some one the sum could tell—
This, and my heart, and all the Bees
Which in the Clover dwell.
