I heard a Fly buzz (sep 19, 1862 – oct 31, 1862)
Description:
"I heard a Fly buzz - when I died -
The Stillness in the Room
Was like the Stillness in the Air -
Written after Antietam, Which was the bloodiest day of the war, thus with the amount of death on a single day, its probable of why she wrote this poem.
