  Painting inspired by:
  “Hope” is the thing with feathers
  By Emily Dickinson

  “Hope” is the thing with feathers
  That perches in the soul
  And sings the tune without the words
  And never stops - at all

  And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard
  And sore must be the storm
  That could abash the little Bird
  That kept so many warm

  I’ve heard it in the chillest land
  And on the strangest Sea
  Yet - never - in Extremity,
  It asked a crumb - of me.
