To make a prairie by Emily Dickinson and Pamela Dalton


To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,--
One clover, and a bee,
And revery. 
The revery alone will do
If bees are few.

                             --Emily Dickinson

Not knowing when the dawn will come
I open every door;
Or has it feather like a bird,
Or billows like a shore?

                               --Emily Dickinson

                                                                      From Katherine Patterson's Giving Thanks
