    Emily Dickinson is one of the highest regarded poets to ever write. In America, perhaps only Walt Whitman is her equal in legend and in degree of influence.
    In one of Dickinson's most beloved poems, 'Hope is the Thing With Feathers', Dickinson portrays hope as a bird that lives within the human soul; this bird sings come rain or shine, gale or storm, good times or bad.

    The poet likens hope to a feathered bird that perches in everyone’s soul. (Dickinson loved birds.) And the bird keeps singing to inspire even when times get rough. No matter how difficult the circumstances, we all have hope within ourselves to help us overcome the worst adversities.

    Some of the new comments here come from players of the game Honkai Star Rail. This is because three songs in that game are titled and themed after Emily's three poems, this being one of them. The others are "If I Can Stop One Heart From Breaking" (February 2024) and "Had I Not Seen the Sun" (June 2024).

If I could speak to her now, wherever she may be in eternity, I would say "Thank you. I have heard your little bird, and her voice is beautiful".

    ............................
    Hope
    ‘Hope', this word is a very important and meaningful in your life’s dictionary
    A state of mind, you all should contain in you either you are weak, normal, or extraordinary.
    ‘Hope', it is a song without any words, leads you to work
    Whatever the path is hard or difficult, it leads you to walk.
    ‘Hope', it is an expectation with confidence, to cherish a desire with anticipation;
    A positive thought and psychology, that will provide you inspiration.
    There is hope among the chaos, promise among the problems
    So don’t lose your hope, and don’t become as a failure who blames.
    Become your own companion, learn how to believe yourself
    You don’t have to depend upon anyone, you only need your self help.
    Feel yourself what do you want, don’t fear of any kind of your work
    Don’t forget, before the dawn arises, the night becomes deeply dark.
    Some foolish guys, losing their hope, find a way to Commit suicide
    This is your one and only life, game of sacrifice, you have to fight .
    Do you see, the birds, starting with a single stick, make a beautiful nest
    Your starting may be bad, but at the end you can make this best.
    If you become fail, try and try again, continuously try until you access
    Work hard silently as much as you can, make the noise of success.
    ‘Hope' is a good thing, may be the best thing, that never lie
    So do not drop it out, no good things ever die.
    Never give up, till the end, always try your best
    If there is nothing towards east, then your dream will be in the west.
    Storms always twists and breaks the seedlings but in the end it turns into a giant tree
    "Fear can hold you a prisoner, but hope can set you free."

    “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.

    This poem would mesh very nicely with The Darkling Thrush
    by Thomas Hardy
    .
    "I leant upon a coppice gate
    When Frost was spectre-grey,
    And Winter's dregs made desolate
    The weakening eye of day.
    The tangled bine-stems scored the sky
    Like strings of broken lyres,
    And all mankind that haunted nigh
    Had sought their household fires.
    The land's sharp features seemed to be
    The Century's corpse outleant,
    His crypt the cloudy canopy,
    The wind his death-lament.
    The ancient pulse of germ and birth
    Was shrunken hard and dry,
    And every spirit upon earth
    Seemed fervourless as I.
    At once a voice arose among
    The bleak twigs overhead
    In a full-hearted evensong
    Of joy illimited;
    An aged thrush, frail, gaunt, and small,
    In blast-beruffled plume,
    Had chosen thus to fling his soul
    Upon the growing gloom.
    So little cause for carolings
    Of such ecstatic sound
    Was written on terrestrial things
    Afar or nigh around,
    That I could think there trembled through
    His happy good-night air
    Some blessed Hope, whereof he knew
    And I was unaware."
