DISCOVERY: "Hope is the thing with feathers" by Emily Dickinson

I came across this when I searched Emily Dickinson on Wikipedia, and that led to looking up slant rhyme which resulted in this discovery:
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all.
There's more of it than what's present here, but this was my initial exposure to it.

I love it. =)
