Storm, wind, the wild March sky, sunsets and dawns; the birds and bees, butterflies and flowers of her garden, with a few trusted human friends, were sufficient companionship. The coming of the first robin was a jubilee beyond crowning of monarch or birthday of pope; the first red leaf hurrying through "the altered air," an epoch. Immortality was close about her; and while never morbid or melancholy, she lived in its presence. MABEL LOOMIS TODD (1891) (from the Preface to POEMS by EMILY DICKINSON; Series Two; Edited by two of her friends: MABEL LOOMIS TODD and T.W.HIGGINSON)
