I would like anyone's opinion on Dickerson's religious views. She has so many poems with the theme of religion,death and heaven;
Some keep the Sabbath going to Church
Heaven is what I cannot reach
Because I could not stop for Death
I Felt a Funeral in my Brain


Let me know what's your opinion.

Surely she was often preoccupied with themes of death, and seemed to have faith in an afterlife. Have you tried Google?

i heard a fly buzz-when i died
the stillness in the room
was like the stillness in the air-
between the heaves of strom-Hugh Clary wrote:
