Hope Has Feathers — Emily Dickinson
“Hope” is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul.— Emily Dickinson
What this quote means
Dickinson imagines hope as a small bird that continues to sing through difficult weather. The metaphor makes room for a quiet, persistent kind of resilience, even when certainty is nowhere in sight.
