Nature is what we see:

This poem has a very strong tone that allows Dickinson to show the reader that nature is many things that people don’t even realize. I really admire this poem because she is trying to tell people something but not in a straightforward way. She shows that people during her time are not admiring the true value of nature and see how special it is. This must have been mainly since during the time she wrote the poem it was the time of great industrialization. I also really like that this poem includes the senses and is therefore divided into three parts. The first part describes all the beauty of nature that we can see through our eyes, the second one all the wonderful sounds that nature has given us and finally the last one is about its importance to our mental well being.  By reading the poem it is very clear to see that the theme of this poem is about the beautiful simplicity of nature. Another main theme would also be comparing nature to being as amazing as heaven, so basically the prettiest aspect of earth. This is because she wants humanity to see the beauty and diversity that nature has to offer. This is also a metaphor since Dickinson says “nature is heaven” another metaphor is “ nature is harmony” where she is trying to explain that spending time in nature makes you peaceful and everything around you peaceful as well. These metaphors would be my favorite lines in the poems since they are so well written. She wants to show people how she looks at nature and how important it is for the well being of us humans. There is not a real rhyme pattern used in this poem but there are many words that rhyme with the last word on the first line, which is see. Personification is found in the last line when she implies nature to being a person rather than a place.  This was one of her first poems, this is clearly seen as her use of language is more simple than in her other poems. She creates imagery with words such as bumble-bee, squirrel and hill showing all the beautiful parts of nature.
