The Butterfly's Assumption Gown

The Butterfly's Assumption Gown In Chrysoprase Apartments hung This afternoon put on -- How condescending to descend And be of Buttercups the friend In a New England Town --
ContemplativeEmily Dickinson

The Sea said "Come" to the Brook --

The Sea said "Come" to the Brook -- The Brook said "Let me grow" -- The Sea said "Then you will be a Sea -- I want a Brook -- Come now"! The Sea said "Go" to the Sea -- The Sea said "I am he You cherished" -- "Learned Waters -- Wisdom is stale -- to Me"
ContemplativeEmily Dickinson

Midsummer, was it, when They died --

Midsummer, was it, when They died -- A full, and perfect time -- The Summer closed upon itself In Consummated Bloom -- The Corn, her furthest kernel filled Before the coming Flail -- When These -- leaned unto Perfectness -- Through Haze of Burial --
ContemplativeEmily Dickinson

The butterfly obtains

The butterfly obtains But little sympathy Though favorably mentioned In Entomology -- Because he travels freely And wears a proper coat The circumspect are certain That he is dissolute -- Had he the homely scutcheon Of modest Industry 'Twere fitter certifying For Immortality --
ContemplativeEmily Dickinson

She slept beneath a tree

She slept beneath a tree -- Remembered but by me. I touched her Cradle mute -- She recognized the foot -- Put on her carmine suit And see!
SadEmily Dickinson

Lain in Nature -- so suffice us

Lain in Nature -- so suffice us The enchantless Pod When we advertise existence For the missing Seed -- Maddest Heart that God created Cannot move a sod Pasted by the simple summer On the Longed for Dead

No Autumn's intercepting Chill

No Autumn's intercepting Chill Appalls this Tropic Breast -- But African Exuberance And Asiatic rest.
ContemplativeEmily Dickinson

So gay a Flower

So gay a Flower Bereaves the Mind As if it were a Woe -- Is Beauty an Affliction -- then? Tradition ought to know --
RomanticEmily Dickinson

Spring comes on the World --

Spring comes on the World -- I sight the Aprils -- Hueless to me until thou come As, till the Bee Blossoms stand negative, Touched to Conditions By a Hum.
ContemplativeEmily Dickinson

Of Nature I shall have enough

Of Nature I shall have enough When I have entered these Entitled to a Bumble bee's Familiarities.
ContemplativeEmily Dickinson

I thought that nature was enough

I thought that nature was enough Till Human nature came But that the other did absorb As Parallax a Flame -- Of Human nature just aware There added the Divine Brief struggle for capacity The power to contain Is always as the contents But give a Giant room And you will lodge a Giant And not a smaller man
ContemplativeEmily Dickinson

I send you a decrepit flower

I send you a decrepit flower That nature sent to me At parting -- she was going south And I designed to stay -- Her motive for the souvenir If sentiment for me Or circumstances prudential Withheld invincibly --
