Poems by Emily Dickinson

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of God we ask one favor,

... For what, he is presumed to know -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of Life to own --

... From Life to draw -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of Nature I shall have enough

... Of Nature I shall have enough ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of nearness to her sundered Things

... Salute us, with their wings --As we -- it were -- that perished -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of Paradise' existence

... All we know Is the uncertain certainty -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of Paul and Silas it is said

... But when they went to take them out ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of Silken Speech and Specious Shoe

... Present continuallyHis Suit a chance ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of the Heart that goes in, and closes the Door

... Though the Ring is unwhole, and the Company broke ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of their peculiar light

... I keep one ray To clarify the Sight ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of this is Day composed

... Whose Pomps allure and spurn ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of Tolling Bell I ask the cause?

... That Bells should ring till all should know ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of Tribulation, these are They

... No Ornament, but Palms --Surrender -- is a sort unknown -- ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of whom so dear

... As intimate -- as fugitive ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Of Yellow was the outer Sky

... Till Saffron in Vermilion slid ...

star nullstar nullstar nullstar nullstar null

Oh Future! thou secreted peace

... Is there no wandering route of grace ...
