A poet of the late 19th century. She wasn't known well in her time because she was shy and didn't seek attention. Her writings were published posthumously.

Her poems tend to conform very strictly to a pattern; a favorite pattern of hers was the meter used in Protestant hymns. As a result, most of her poems can be sung to the tune of The Yellow Rose of Texas.

Though most of her poems involve nature, many of them address other topics metaphysical and concrete. My favorite is The Lost Thought.
