Look around, Nature is intoxicating.
Through out this entire poem, Dickinson speaks of the world around her and how one can get drunk of off experiencing nature. She gets drunk off of the air and dew. Then, she talks about how she gets drunk by the summer days with the blue skies. The third stanza talks about how she will drink and get drunk off of nature forever. This drunkenness is a good thing. I actually liked this poem because I am someone who thinks that the world today passes by nature and doesn't really "take it all in" as much as we should. We definitely take it for granted. Also, this poems give me hope that Dickinson also had some good thoughts in her head.
