I have a terminal illness.......I have accepted that what is to be must be.........something brought me to this poem today. I found it oddly comforting.
Accept Jesus Christ Son of God as your Saviour- that He died on Cross for your sins and for you to be righteous. Give your life to Him, ask forgiveness for your sins and invite & accept Him as your Saviour
My interpretation is that is a poetic depiction of a literal funeral procession, with a carriage carrying the dead lyrical self to her grave. It's hauning and morbid but beautiful as well.
emily dickinson tends to use a lot of funereal imagery in her poetry, like in "i felt a funeral in my brain" your assessment is pretty cool because here, instead of establishing a funeral procession as a conceit for a mental breakdown, now instead she's reimagining a funeral itself. its funny how her view of death oscillates between violent and horrific and then mellow and peaceful
The poem explores the theme of mortality, personifying Death as a polite, almost gentle companion who kindly "stops" for the speaker. Rather than frightening or ominous, Death is presented as courteous, even inviting, which sets a contemplative and serene tone. The journey in the poem is symbolic. The speaker travels in a carriage with Death and "Immortality," as if taking a final, inevitable journey toward an eternal destination. By "slowly" driving, Dickinson emphasizes that Death is unhurried and patient. The speaker relinquishes both her work and leisure, suggesting that in the face of death, earthly concerns and daily routines fade in significance. The scenery they pass-"the School," "the Fields of Gazing Grain," and "the Setting Sun"-can be seen as symbolic of the stages of life: childhood, maturity, and old age or the end of life. These scenes reflect life’s natural progression, which the speaker observes one final time as she leaves it behind. The mood grows colder as they pass the sun. Dressed only in "Gossamer" and "Tulle," the speaker feels a chill, suggesting the frailty and vulnerability of life. The "House" they pause before is a grave, with its roof barely visible and "Cornice-in the Ground." It’s a resting place, yet its description as a “House” suggests a homecoming or a place of rest and continuity. The poem closes with the speaker realizing that this journey was centuries ago, though it "feels shorter than the Day." She reflects that time in eternity is beyond human comprehension, compressing centuries into a moment. The horses are "toward Eternity," signifying a journey without end, where death is merely a transition into the infinite. Dickinson’s portrayal of death here is peaceful and accepting, presenting it as a natural and inevitable process, guided by a gentle figure. The poem invites readers to consider death not as an end, but as part of an eternal journey. The audio and visual presentation of the poem breaths new life into such a beautiful piece of poetry.
I first saw this presentation a couple of weeks ago when I was truly struggling with my mostly recently acquired knowledge of my mortality. I was not going gently into that good night. It figuratively stopped me in my tracks and I was struck with an immediate sense of calm and acceptance. "Yes, that is me." A perfect accompaniment to Dickinson's poem. As it guides me on my way.
The Reaper comes, with scythe in hand to take us to the other land His coat is black, his voice is grim his eyes are red, his body slim. He'll come for you, he'll come for me it's just a matter of time, you see For he's a part of life's grand scheme and in his touch, there's a new dream.
I love Emily's poetry and this poem is iconic. I've absolutely loved your interpretation as a trip to the past. I think it is something people may do naturally when they face their leaving.I think I'd do. Thanks a lot. The images are beautiful and very intriguing.
So soothing ❤, I just closed my eyes to feel that mesmerizing vibe but I was here to watch the explanation of this poem for my exam 😅. Thank you so much 🙏...
It seems to alternate between manmade structures and the natural world this film. Interesting urban then countryside then urban then countryside again. Great poem good visuals
In flanders field! My life close twice I have a rendezvous with death Oh captain my captain A thing of beauty Daffoldils All that is gold that is not glitter Etc.
I love it. It seems absolutely fitting and the narration (recital?) is superb. My only complaint is, as is too often the case sadly, the music is too loud. Those of us with older ears often find the volume and certain notes extremely jarring. I miss the days when background music WAS in the background.
Computer audio is still a mess. It doesn't know if you have surround sound system or two little computer speakers. If it helps, you might want to look into your audio settings and try some of those. I have one that has a checkbox for volume equalization that functions well.
I once read that the poems of Emily Dickinson can be sung to the tune of "The Yellow Rose of Texas". I don't know if that's true for all her poems, but it does for this one.
Beautiful poem beautifully read, but do we need a soundtrack and film footage? Let the words and the thought and art behind them do the work they were intended to do. They are rich enough as they are.

I actually love it. The poem is old and the vocabulary dated, but the visuals help bring the idea home that the sentiment is timeless and applies to Dickinson‘s world just as much as it does ours. Horses, cars, who cares, the journey is always the same.
wonderful concept of your channel!! what camera do you use and which program for editing? i was looking for more channels like yours cuz they inspire me to make similar videos. Wish your channel grows bigger, it deserves attention :)
I love this so much, it hit me really. Stupid question, but what kind of camera are you using when there is that little elliptical rectangle on the side? I've seen it before and love it, but I know nothing about cameras. Any info would be appreciated.

It's life transformation "Eternity". Think much higher...

I can't listen to poetry anymore, unless its read by Tom. I love the visuals.
Agreed
Big facts 🙌
Hiddleston?
@@TheBookoftheLord
Tom O’Bedlam. The man who read this piece of poetry
He has a good voice but it seems jarring to me to listen to a poem written by a woman, read by a man. Can we have no respite from the voices of men.

It's so wonderful to see content like this on TH-cam instead of just TikTok dances.
The Reaper comes, with scythe in hand
to take us to the other land
His coat is black, his voice is grim
his eyes are red, his body slim.
He'll come for you, he'll come for me
it's just a matter of time, you see
For he's a part of life's grand scheme
and in his touch, there's a new dream.
👍
My favorite poem by my favorite poet. Hauntingly beautiful.
Death will come to us as a friend - the words have given me comfort after my dad passed away. Your visuals and the soothing voice help … Thank you
You really get the cadence of each poem, the music is very fitting.
IMO, the music is truly awful. And too loud.
@@gigiwills7851I feel the same.
We passed the setting sun,
Or rather,
He passed us
Once in a lifetime-there is everything!
Loveliest of trees!
Very beautiful reading, stunning visuals.
A stunning reading and visuals. I am truly moved by this.

I can't either. I am not ready. Have good to do before I expire.
Thankyou so much for this
Thank you again! ❤
Excellent 21C interpretation of a timeless American master from the 19C. Is that Tom O'Bedlam narrating?
Thank you!! I have my doubts when I was making it, but it's cool that you liked it. Yes, It's Tom O'Bedlam's voice, I credit him in the description :D
This is magnificent, omg
Amazing thank you

English lit 🔥 I remember this poem
Makes me think of the Twilight Zone episode, "The Hitch-hiker".
By pass everything even death its parts of my life and reference which i cannot by pass and forgot...my number ...
Beautiful poem beautifully read, but do we need a soundtrack and film footage? Let the words and the thought and art behind them do the work they were intended to do. They are rich enough as they are.
This is so gorgeous

Beautiful but the imagery of the modern car seems misplaced.

Most of Emily Dickinson's poems can be sung to the tune of Gilligan's Island Theme.
Death has no civility and is indignity itself.
