I'm Nobody!Who are you?

I'm Nobody!Who are You?
Are you - Nobody - too?
Then there's a pair of us!
Don't tell! they'd banish us - you know!
How dreary - to be - Somebody!
How public - like a Frog -
To tell your name - the livelong June -
To an admiring Bog!

Emily Dickinson(1830-1886)

I thought it is a good idea to start writing in my blog with a poem by Emily Dickinson.One of the charactristics of this great poet's poetry is that her poems pick you up from this world and put you in another world.
