Show transcript
Perhaps Dickinson uses light imagery in her poem to represent hope within the darkness of grief.
The cyclical nature of her poem illustrates that life, and grief, come and go - a natural process.
Dickinson uses a regular rhythm to represent the predictability of the passing of time.
Subtle shifts in rhythm and near rhyme could represent the imperceptibility of time passing and healing from grieving.
