The Help
Question from "Life, Poem III by Emily Dickinson"
this is the poem-----------------
(1) The nearest dream recedes, unrealized.
The heaven we chase
Like the June bee
Before the school-boy
(5) Invites the race;
Stoops to an easy clover —
Dips — evades — teases — deploys;
Then to the royal clouds
Lifts his light pinnace
(10) Heedless of the boy
Staring, bewildered, at the mocking sky.
Homesick for steadfast honey,
Ah! the bee flies not
That brews that rare variety.
----------qiestions-------------

D-Dreams are beautiful, but they can sting!
----qiestions 4------
Reread lines 1–5.
The nearest dream recedes, unrealized.
The heaven we chase
Like the June bee
Before the school-boy
Invites the race;
How are dreams represented in the poem?
