I just heard the other day that all of Dickinson's poems can be sung to the
tune of "The Yellow Rose of Texas". I don't know if that is true, but
certainly this one can. <smile>

Dear Rik,
I found the poem at www. bartleby.com. Here it is in is entirety for your
reading pleasure. The first four lines will help you to validate your book.
I am looking forward to reading The Postcard.
Take care,
Kevin Boozer
It's All I Have To Bring Today
It's all I have to bring to-day, 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. Rik James <d28rik@xxxxxxx> wrote:Okay,
here is one for you very literate and poetic types
Any real good Emily Dickenson fans?
English lit teachers?
This quote heads up that book The Postcard book by Beverly Lewis that I'm
trying to validate.
And given that the OpenBook version was not produced in Exact View, I have
not really a way I can think of to come up with the correction. And since
the character uses this Dickenson in the "postcard" it just might be a nice
thing to know if the possible future Bookshare reader downloads the book!
So, maybe think of it as your chance on the Weakest Link, or Jeopardy or
something!
Here is the text I have ....
all S7 naue io oring today,
IJnis, and mu Aeart oeside,
Unis, and ma £eart, and all t£e fields,
And all tne meadows wide
Emily Dickinson (circa 1858)
Note: I did a Google and got to Poets.org where you can search, but I
didn't on quick try have success. Good luck! And thanks!
