This poem has a deep meaning behind it. Through out emilys life she set dreams or goals that she wanted to achieve. When she was diagnosed with her disease she started to wonder why he dreams and goals werent achieved. why he questions were never answered. She gave her all and tried to do better than the rest, but the world didnt give her the amount of time she needed to achieve her dream. so in this poem she shows that she wanted to much more for her self.
Emily is writing a letter to the world in the form of a poem. The world does not recognize her because she never stepped foot past her house/garden. She seems to be able to predict that someday people will be reading her poems. She wishes to pass on the messages and lessons that nature has taught her. Emily also has the expectation that the future readers of her poems will enjoy nature as she did (line 7). She requests in the last two lines that the readers will enjoy her poems and not critique them too harshly (unlike some of the people who have left comments here). The topic/abstract image is Nature and the concrete image is a letter. This is a beautiful poem with a great message .Kim Eun Hye
