This 3 stanza poem by Emily Dickinson uses the metaphor of a river flowing into the sea to represent a person longing for acceptance or connection. The river asks the sea if it will welcome it and look graciously upon it, offering to bring it brooks from hidden places. The river waits for the sea's reply and plea for the sea to take it in.
