"I'm Nobody! Who Are You?" by Emily Dickinson

My very favorite poem by Emily Dickinson.

I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us -don't tell!
They'd banish us, you know.

How dreary to be somebody!
How public, like a frog
To tell your name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!

I enjoyed your poem, Denise. It was funny. Good job!

If One is Somebody, he may make a spectacle of himself. "Ribbet".
