Analysis of This Bauble was preferred of Bees
Emily Dickinson 1830 (Amherst) – 1886 (Amherst)
This Bauble was preferred of Bees—
By Butterflies admired
At Heavenly—Hopeless Distances—
Was justified of Bird—
Did Noon—enamel—in Herself
Was Summer to a Score
Who only knew of Universe—
It had created Her.
