Emily Dickinson (1830–86). Complete Poems. 1924.

Part Three: Love

XL

SUMMER for thee grant I may be

When summer days are flown!

Thy music still when whippoorwill

And oriole are done!

For thee to bloom, I ’ll skip the tomb

And sow my blossoms o’er!

Pray gather me, Anemone,

Thy flower forevermore!
