Poem by Emily Elizabeth Dickinson

Possession

Did the harebell loose her girdle
To the lover bee,
Would the bee the harebell hallow
Much as formerly?

Did the paradise, persuaded,
Yield her moat of pearl,
Would the Eden be an Eden,
Or the earl an earl?

1. The Farthest Thunder That I Heard
2. Upon the Gallows Hung a Wretch
3. The Lost Thought
4. With Flowers (If recollecting were forgetting)
5. On the Tleakness of My Lot
