NATURE RARER USES YELLOW by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: Like a Lover's Words
Subject(s): NATURE; COLORS;
Nature rarer uses Yellow
Than another Hue.
Saves she all of that for Sunsets
Prodigal of Blue

Spending Scarlet, like a Woman
Yellow she affords
Only scantly and selectly
Like a Lover's Words.
