Contents:
Introduction -- Summer... it's all I have to bring today -- In the name of the Bee -- I'm nobody! Who are you? -- A bird came down the walk -- They dropped like Flakes -- "Answer, July!" -- A narrow fellow in the grass -- Exhilaration is in the breeze -- To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee -- A soft sea washed around the house -- From all the jails the boys and girls -- Autumn.... The gentian weaves her fringes -- Faith is a fine invention -- Blazing in gold and quenching in purple -- I never saw a moor -- He fumbles at your spirit -- Because I could not stop for death -- The cricket sang -- Winter... Safe in their alabaster chambers -- It sifts from leaden sieves -- This is my letter to the world -- The spider holds a silver ball -- There's a certain slant of light -- The going from a world we know -- Like brooms of steel -- I went to heaven -- Spring... New feet within my garden go -- Bee, I'm expecting you! -- Hope is the thing with feathers -- Will there really be a morning? -- A word is dead -- I send two Sunsets -- The wind begun to rock the grass -- A curious cloud surprised the sky -- There is no frigate like a book -- What Emily was thinking.
