To Make A Prairie (1755) Poem by Emily Dickinson
To Make A Prairie (1755)
To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
One clover, and a bee.
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few.
Labor alone and the work is drudgery; labor with others, and they help bear the burden.
A short poem that tells of the simple yet most neglected secret to happiness - the power of the mind; -)
