However, for the rest of us, it's "March Madness," and since we've just transitioned from the "Sweet Sixteen" to the "Elite Eight," we thought we'd post another poem about the tournament by Emmett Lee Dickinson (Emily Dickinson's third cousin, twice removed -- at her request). |
Dickinson's poem "Not at home to Callers" (below on the left) inspired third cousin Emily to pen her poem by the same name (below on the right).
| By Emmett Lee Dickinson: Not at Home to Callers Says the B-ball Fan – Bracket done in April – Wishing you Good Day – | By Emily Dickinson: Not at Home to Callers Says the Naked Tree – Jacket due in April – Wishing you Good Day – |
