Emily Dickinson utilizes vivid imagery, personification, and irony in the poem "Some keep the Sabbath going to Church." The imagery of nature and domestic scenes conveys the idea that one can find spirituality outside of traditional religious practices, while personifying the Sabbath as a living entity challenges conventional beliefs. The ironic tone suggests a playful rejection of societal norms surrounding religion.
Emily Dickinson's poem "Some Keep the Sabbath Going to Church" is an expression of her rather unorthodox view of how a person should live his or her spiritual life. Most people celebrate the Sabbath by going to church; however, Emily Dickinson feels that time is better spent at home and especially with nature, a very prevalent theme in this poem. She starts her poem making the simple statement that some people keep the Sabbath by going to church, but she stays at home. She makes comparisons between church and her home stating that she has birds for a choir and an orchard for a dome (dome meaning a church building). She states that some people dress up for church, but she just wears her wings. Wings are symbolic of what God gives her, and they relate to her expression of the glory found in nature. She says that instead of ringing bells for church, her Sexton, which she has mentioned as the bobolink, sings. In her last paragraph, Emily says that God, who of course is a noted Clergyman, preaches to her through life, a sermon that is never long. She says that instead interrupting her life to go to church, she is going home where she can live her life and get to heaven just as easily.
