A blackout poem made from a page of poetry by Emily Dickinson. Certain words of the poem are circled in black to create the blackout poem. The poem is colored over in varied colors. The margins of the page are colored in grey with traced imprints of leaves.

Morning
light
for sun!

leaves
bells;
sentinels.
if I hide,
make me visible.

a thorn
A flash
And I’m a rose!

from the earth a bird,
softly
Upon a wind
Which
Nature left behind.
