Emily Dickinson's birthday was December 10th. I think her "Hope is the thing with feathers" is an apt poem for the third week of Advent.

I thought I left a comment on this one. Perhaps it didn't go through. It is a great poem. I love the theme of HOPE.
ReplyDeleteI like, especially, that a child is the narrator here. Kind of goes with our art work for this week, too.
ReplyDeleteDymphna, Thank you for posting this.
ReplyDeleteI guess other than hearing "Hope is a thing with feathers" I never heard or read the poem. It's lovely, so thanks again.
You're welcome. I love Emily Dickinson. She's one of my favorite poets.
