What was the title of Emily Dickinson's first poem?

Answer 1

Emily Dickinson did not name her poems; the titles were assigned by early editors of her poems. When editors saw them, they assigned each a number. The 'titles' of her poems are generally the first line of the poem. Some of her poems include:

"I'm nobody! Who are you?"

"Success is counted sweetest"

"I cannot live with you"

"Wild nights! Wild nights!"

"Because I could not stop for death"

She never really titled her poems, so people just title her poems with the first line of that poem. Ex. Love is anterior to life By: Emily Dickinson Love is anterior to life, Posterior to death, Initial of creation, and The exponent of breath. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -Because I could not stop for Death

Answer 2

Generally speaking, she didn't, although she did refer to them by the first lines, and these are often adopted as titles when talking about the poems. Later compilers of her poetry added numbers to the poems, roughly (but not exactly) based on the order in which she wrote them.
