If I Should Die by Emily Dickinson (8)

I found the poem to be cold and depressing. Emily Dickinson was, I heard, a lonely woman. The message I got from this was that if one should die, life continues. Death is unavoidable so we should all continue living. Life continues, even when there is death.

  1. I would have to disagree with you that this was a depressing poem because in light of it, even though one may fall, many still stand. Great comment though.
