What is the theme of this text? *
If I Can Stop One Heart from Breaking
by Emily Dickinson
If I can stop one heart from breaking.
I shall not live in vain.
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.
It is not always possible to prevent someone's heart from breaking.
Acts of compassion add meaning to our lives.
A person talks about how she or he wants to help other people.
O A robin fell out of his nest and someone put him back in.
