This Is My Letter To The World

by

This Is My Letter To The World is Emily Dickinson's poignant address to the world that never wrote to her, entrusting her message to Nature and asking that her unseen readers judge her tenderly. "This is my letter to the World / That never wrote to Me —"
Emily Dickinson portrait
This is my letter to the world,
That never wrote to me,-- 
The simple news that Nature told, 
With tender majesty. 
Her message is committed 
To hands I cannot see; 
For love of her, sweet countrymen,
Judge tenderly of me!
