Dickinson, Emily: (The Sun — just touched the Morning —)

Portre of Dickinson, Emily

(The Sun — just touched the Morning —) (English)

The Sun — just touched the Morning —
The Morning — Happy thing —
Supposed that He had come to dwell
And Life would all be Spring!

She felt herself supremer
A Raised — Ethereal Thing!
Henceforth — for Her — What Holiday!
Meanwhile — Her wheeling King —
Trailed — slow — along the Orchards —
His haughty — spangled Hems —
Leaving a new necessity!
The want of Diadems!

The Morning — fluttered — staggered
Felt feebly — for Her Crown
Her unanointed forehead
Henceforth — Her only One!
