A poem that has given a great many biographers, thesis writers, and children’s book authors the hook they needed for a title.
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
