Poems by Emily Dickinson

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I dreaded that first Robin, so,

... Could stretch -- to look at me --I could not bear the Bees should come, ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I never lost as much but twice

... Before the door of God!Angels -- twice descending ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I robbed the Woods

... I scanned their trinkets curious -- I grasped -- I bore away -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

It sifts from Leaden Sieves

... It deals Celestial VailTo Stump, and Stack -- and Stem -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

On this wondrous sea

... Ho! Pilot, ho! Knowest thou the shore ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

The Guest is gold and crimson

... His Capuchin gay --He reaches town at nightfall -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

A word is dead

... A word is dead When it is said, ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Ample make this Bed --

... In it wait till Judgment break ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Frequently the wood are pink

... And the Earth -- they tell me -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

He ate and drank the precious Words --

... Nor that his frame was Dust --He danced along the dingy Days ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

I never told the buried gold

... That ever kissed the spade!Whether to keep the secret -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

It's all I have to bring today

... This, and my heart, and all the fields -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

My wheel is in the dark!

... A clearing at the end --Some have resigned the Loom -- ...

She died -- this was the way she died.

... She died -- this was the way she died ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

She sweeps with many-colored Brooms

... Come back, and dust the Pond!You dropped a Purple Ravelling in -- ...
