This article is an attempt to decipher the meaning of Emily Dickinson?s poem
668 ??Nature? is what we see? by observing the different mentioned objects (used here to
refer to animals, insects, natural phenomena and natural objects) and discovering
patterns between the objects in each group as well as patterns that exist between the
objects in each group and those in other groups to prove that the choice of these objects
was not arbitrary but rather deliberate. Dickinson, as proven in this reading of the poem,
tries to reflect the diversity of nature through her choice of the objects she lists in her
poem.
