Poems by Emily Dickinson
A single Clover Plank
... From sinking in the sky --'Twixt Firmament above ...
A Sloop of Amber slips away
... And wrecks in Peace a Purple Tar, ...
A soft Sea washed around the House
... And rose and fell the magic Planks ...
A solemn thing -- it was -- I said
... As hovering -- seen -- through fog --And then -- the size of this "small" life -- ...
A Solemn thing within the Soul
... You hear a Being -- drop --A Wonderful -- to feel the Sun ...
A something in a summer's Day
... Still chafes it narrow bed --Still rears the East her amber Flag -- ...
A South Wind -- has a pathos
... The fairer -- for the farness -- ...
A Sparrow took a Slice of Twig
... Was handed Nature twice --Invigorated, waded ...
A Spider sewed at Night
... Of Immortality His Strategy ...
A stagnant pleasure like a Pool
... And make the Water slowImpeding navigation bright ...
A still -- Volcano -- Life --
... The North cannot detectThe Solemn -- Torrid -- Symbol -- ...
A throe upon the features
... Denominated "Death" --An anguish at the mention ...
A Toad, can die of Light --
... The Gnat's supremacy is large as Thine --Life -- is a different Thing -- ...
A Tongue -- to tell Him I am true!
... Since Midnight -- happened -- say --If once more -- Pardon -- Boy -- ...
A train went through a burial gate,
... And trilled, and quivered, and shook his throat ...
