On the feelings of learning foreign poetry

My favorite foreign poet is Emily Dickinson, the queen of short poems. After reading many of her poems, I was deeply touched. Take her as an example to tell you something about foreign poetry.

I remember that some people used to say that people who study Dickinson are full and have nothing to do. I think he thinks Dickinson's poems are too everyday to be studied.

Although she left more than 1700 poems, I find it difficult to read them all.

Her poems are really everyday, mixed with philosophical thoughts, including reflections on life and descriptions of some abstract concepts. And it is difficult for me to extract a few incisive words from her poems as highlights. Because most of her poems seem to be coherent narrative poems.

Sometimes her poems feel very close to nature, with a soft taste; Sometimes I find her mocking many phenomena in the world and laughing like a witch in the dark.

She gives people the impression that she is weak on the surface, but she is also a woman with strong spiritual strength. From the moment she can persist in writing and write down so many drawers, it shows that she is ready for a lonely life.

I don't know if I answered your question, but if you like poetry, we can communicate with each other.

She seemed to hold the truth in her hand and described her thoughts in the simplest and most vivid words.

Compared with the popular skills now, perhaps writing like that is the true meaning of poetry.
