Poems by Emily Dickinson
I bet with every Wind that blew
... I bet with every Wind that blew ...
I breathed enough to take the Trick
... That One, to be quite sure --The Lungs are stirless -- must descend ...
I bring an unaccustomed wine
... Are so superfluous Cold --I would as soon attempt to warm ...
I Came to buy a smile -- today
... I've Rubies -- live the Evening Blood -- ...
I can wade Grief
... That was all!Power is only Pain -- ...
I cannot be ashamed
... Magnitude Reverses ModestyAnd I cannot be proud ...
I cannot buy it -- 'tis not sold --
... Though it took all my storeBut just to look it in the Eye -- ...
I cannot dance upon my Toes
... One Claw upon the Air,Nor tossed my shape in Eider Balls, ...
I cannot meet the Spring unmoved --
... A Warrant to be fair --A Competition in my sense ...
I cannot see my soul but know 'tis there
... I cannot see my soul but know 'tis there ...
I cannot want it more --
... My Human Nature's fullest force ...
I cautious, scanned my little life
... And lo - my priceless HayWas not upon the "Scaffold" -- ...
I could bring You Jewels -- had I a mind to --
... Domingo -- Colors -- from Vera Cruz --Berries of the Bahamas -- have I -- ...
I could die -- to know --
... Were but mine -- the Charter of the least Fly --Houses hunch the House ...
I could not drink it, Sweet,
... Though cooler than the Water was ...
