“Hope” is the thing with feathers, by 

Emily
Dickinson
“Hope” is the thing with feathers –
That perches in the soul –
And sings the tune without the words –
And never stops – at all –

And sweetest – in the Gale – is heard –


And sore must be the storm –
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm –

I’ve heard it in the chillest land –


And on the strangest Sea –
Yet – never – in Extremity,
It asked a crumb – of me.
