"Hope" is the thing with feathers-Emily Dickinson


Just by reading the title I knew that I would love it.”Hope”which can be determined as the most positive word in the entire world and something that is needed in everyone’s life. It is true that we all have those “black clouds” in our lives and everyone face problems in different ways,but something in common is that in the end there is a light for everyone of us,the hope.Except it in the title are mentioned the feathers,which means,moving freely through life and there is no other natural creature than bird which can symbolizes better freedom.In the poem Emily Dickinson compares hope to a bird.The song which a bird never stops singing it is more or less the same feeling that hope gives to every person whose life has its ups and downs.In the Dickinson’s poem is used lot of imagination,which allows us not just to feel hope but also “see it”. By giving it feathers,we can understand that hope is refereed to a bird even though there is no bird mentioned.At the end there are two lines:”yet,never,in extremity.it asked a crumb of me showing that:if  people hope for something they don’t need to pay anything for what hope is given to them.So as a conclusion, hopeis the most beneficial when it is needed the most.

  1. I share the same opinion.You have depicted the story based in two fundamental factors such as "hope" and"freedom".These two factors are vital to everyone,despite we face with problems of life or even in "struggle"with ourself."hope"and "freedom"make us to go ahead,to start all over again.It is better to see "the glass half full than half empty".
