Presentiment is that long shadow
from Ririro.com - Poetry · host Ririro
"Presentiment is that long shadow" is a four-line poem by Emily Dickinson that turns an ordinary evening into a quiet warning. A shadow stretches across the lawn, and the startled grass senses that darkness is about to pass over it. In just twenty-three words, Dickinson captures the uneasy moment before something changes, when the light is still present but the feeling of loss has already arrived. A brief, haunting read that lingers well after the last line. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ririro-com-poetry--6577576/support.
