Emily Dickinson (USA)
If I can keep a heart from breaking
I didn't live in vain.
If I can eliminate a person's pain.
Or soothe a person's grief.
Or help a robin in a coma.
Go back to its nest.
I didn't waste my life.
This poem was written by Emily Dickinson, a legendary American poetess. Although the whole poem is short, it makes people understand that even a little in front of goodness is enough for a life that needs saving. China's old saying goes well: Don't do it with a little evil, and don't do it with a little good. This sentence has the same effect as this poem, and the spiritual strength and great appeal revealed by the whole poem often move me.
