Water, is taught by thirst.
Land-by the Oceans passed.
Transport-by throe-
Peace-by its battles told-
Love by Memorial Mold-
Birds by the snow.
Nature is the central purpose. Dickinson shows the things we need most in life and what they are based off of. Nature depicts the important things in life such as water, land, transportation, peace, and love.
I believe all aspects of life are formed and based off of something else. In other words, everything supports everything else. The poem states, "peace-by its battles told" which means you do not solve any problems without fighting it out. Dickinson refers to birds because they are a symbol of nature.
There are no literary devices.
