Emily Dickinson - A light exists in springEmily Dickinson - A light exists in spring
Work rating: Medium


A light exists in spring   Not present on the year At any other period.   When March is scarcely here A color stands abroad   On solitary hills That science cannot overtake,   But human nature feels. It waits upon the lawn;   It shows the furthest tree Upon the furthest slope we know;   It almost speaks to me. Then, as horizons step,   Or noons report away, Without the formula of sound,   It passes, and we stay: A quality of loss   Affecting our content, As trade had suddenly encroached   Upon a sacrament.
