Emily Dickinson's Collected Poems
A Thunderstorm
What did the wind do to the earth?
What did the wind do to the earth?
The wind begun to rock the grass
With threatening tunes and low, -
He flung a menace at the earth,
A menace at the sky.
The leaves unhooked themselves from trees
And started all abroad;
The dust did scoop itself like hands
And throw away the road.
A Thunderstorm
