Earth is crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
But only he who sees
Takes off his shoes –
The rest sit around it and pluck blackberries.
– Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Join the Call to Artists to take off your shoes before climate departure leaves us with no blackberries to pluck. Read yesterday’s post: Before the Planetary Requiem
The poem is not by Emily Dickinson but Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Thank you, someone! WOW! I should have known. The Barretts are in my DNA. Elizabeth would not be happy.🤫
