Will no one guide a little boat Unto the nearest town? So Sailors say-on yesterday- Just as the dusk was brown One little boat gave up its strife And gurgled down and down. So angels say-on yesterday- Just as the dawn was red One little boat-o'erspent with gales- Retrimmed its masts-redecked its sails- And shot-exultant on!

Poems by Emily Dickinson Above Oblivions Tide there is a Pi Abraham to kill him- Absence disembodies-so does Death Absent Place-an April Day Adrift A little boat adrift Advance is Lifes condition Afraid Of whom am I afraid After all Birds have been investig After a hundred years After great pain a formal feeling After the Sun comes out Again-his voice is at the door Ah Moon-and Star Ah Necromancy Sweet Ah Teneriffe Air has no Residence no Neighbor All but Death can be Adjusted All Circumstances are the Frame All forgot for recollecting All I may if small All men for Honor hardest work All overgrown by cunning moss All that I do All these my banners be All the letters I can write All things swept sole away Alone and in a Circumstance Alone I cannot be Alter When the Hills do Although I put away his life Always Mine Ambition cannot find him Ample make this Bed And this of all my Hopes And with what body do they come- Angels in the early morning Answer July An altered look about the hills An antiquated Grace An Antiquated Tree An awful Tempest mashed the air An honest Tear An Hour is a Sea An ignorance a Sunset Apology for Her Apparently with no surprise Arcturus is his other name Are Friends Delight or Pain Arrows enamored of his Heart- Artists wrestled here Art thou the thing I wanted Ashes denote that Fire was- As by the dead we love to sit As Children bid the Guest Good Nig As Everywhere of Silver As far from pity as complaint As from the earth the light Balloo As Frost is best conceived As if I asked a common Alms As if some little Arctic flower As if the Sea should part As imperceptibly as Grief As imperceptibly as Grief1540As im As One does Sickness over As plan for Noon and plan for Nigh As Sleigh Bells seem in summer As subtle as tomorrow As Summer into Autumn slips As the Starved Maelstrom laps the As Watchers hang upon the East As we pass Houses musing slow As willing lid oer weary eye Papa above At Half past Three a single Bird At last to be identified At least-to pray-is left-is left At leisure is the Soul Aurora is the effort Autumn-overlooked my Knitting Awake ye muses nine sing me a stra Away from Home are some and I- A Bee his burnished Carriage A Bird came down the Walk A Burdock-clawed my Gown A Cap of Lead across the sky A Charm invests a face A chilly Peace infests the Grass A Clock stopped A Cloud withdrew from the Sky A Coffin-is a small Domain A Counterfeit-a Plated Person- A curious Cloud surprised the Sky A darting fear-a pomp-a tear A Day Help Help Another Day A Death blow is a Life blow to Som A Deed knocks first at Thought A Dew sufficed itself- A Diamond on the Hand A Dimple in the Tomb A Door just opened on a street A doubt if it be Us A Drop Fell on the Apple Tree A Drunkard cannot meet a Cork A Dying Tiger-moaned for Drink A emWounded em Deer-leaps highest A face devoid of love or grace A faded Boy-in sallow Clothes A feather from the Whippoorwill A Field of Stubble lying sere A first Mute Coming A Flower will not trouble her it h A full fed Rose on meals of Tint A fuzzy fellow without feet A great Hope fell A happy lip-breaks sudden A House upon the Height A Lady red-amid the Hill A lane of Yellow led the eye A Letter is a joy of Earth- A Light exists in Spring A little bread-a crust-a crumb A little Dog that wags his tail A little East of Jordan A little Madness in the Spring A little overflowing word A little Road-not made of Man A little Snow was here and there A long-long Sleep-A famous-Sleep A loss of something ever felt I A Man may make a Remark A Mien to move a Queen A Mine there is no Man would own A Moth the hue of this A Murmur in the Trees-to note A narrow Fellow in the Grass A nearness to Tremendousness A Night-there lay the Days between A Pang is more conspicuous in Spri A Pit-but Heaven over it- A Planted Life-diversified A poor-torn heart-a tattered heart A precious-mouldering pleasure A Prison gets to be a friend A Rat surrendered here A prompt-executive Bird is the Jay A Route of Evanescence A Saucer holds a Cup A science-so the Savants say A Secret told A sepal petal and a thorn A Shade upon the mind there passes A shady friend-for Torrid days A Sickness of this World it most o A single Clover Plank A single Screw of Flesh A slash of Blue A Sloop of Amber slips away A soft Sea washed around the House A solemn thing-it was-I said A Solemn thing within the Soul A something in a summers Day A South Wind-has a pathos A Sparrow took a Slice of Twig A Spider sewed at Night A stagnant pleasure like a Pool A still-Volcano-Life A Thought went up my mind today A throe upon the features A Toad can die of Light A Tongue-to tell Him I am true A Tooth upon Our Peace A train went through a burial gate A transport one cannot contain A Visitor in Marl A Weight with Needles on the pound A Wife-at daybreak I shall be A wild Blue sky abreast of Winds A Wind that rose A winged spark doth soar about- A word is dead A Word dropped careless on a Page A Word made Flesh is seldom A World made penniless by that dep Back from the cordial Grave I drag Baffled for just a day or two Banish Air from Air- Beauty-be not caused-It Is Beauty crowds me till I die Because He loves Her Because I could not stop for Death Because my Brook is fluent Because that you are going Because the Bee may blameless hum Because twas Riches I could own Bees are Black with Gilt Surcingle Bee Im expecting you Before He comes we weigh the Time Before I got my eye put out Before the ice is in the pools Before you thought of Spring Behind Me-dips Eternity Behold this little Bane- Belshazzar had a Letter- Bereaved of all I went abroad Bereavement in their death to feel Besides the Autumn poets sing Besides this May Best Gains-must have the Losses Te Best Things dwell out of Sight Best Witchcraft is Geometry Betrothed to Righteousness might b Better-than Music For I-who heard Between My Country-and the Others Between the form of Life and Life Be Mine the Doom- Bind me-I still can sing- Birthday of but a single pang Blazing in Gold and quenching in P Bless God he went as soldiers Bliss is the plaything of the chil Bloom-is Result-to meet a Flower Bloom upon the Mountain-stated Blossoms will run away Bound-a trouble Bring me the sunset in a cup Brother of Ingots-Ah Peru- But little Carmine hath her face By a departing light By a flower-By a letter By Chivalries as tiny By homely gift and hindered Words By my Window have I for Scenery By such and such an offering Candor-my tepid friend- Circumference thou Bride of Awe

Himself-like Leaves He preached upon Breadth till it a He put the Belt around my life He scanned it-staggered- He strained my faith He told a homely tale He touched me so I live to know He was my host-he was my guest He was weak and I was strong-then He went by sleep that drowsy route He who in Himself believes High from the earth I heard a bird His Bill an Auger is His Bill is clasped-his Eye forsoo His Cheek is his Biographer- His Feet are shod with Gauze His Heart was darker than the star His little Hearse like Figure His Mansion in the Pool His Mind like Fabrics of the East His mind of
