Poem by Emily Elizabeth Dickinson

* * *

ALL but Death can be
Adjusted;
Dynasties repaired,
Systems settled in their
Sockets,
Centuries removed,—

Wastes of lives resown
With colors
By superior springs,
Death—unto itself exception—
Is exempt from change.

1. Nobody Knows This Little Rose
2. Their Height in Heaven Comforts Not
3. Triumph
4. If I Should Die
5. Vanished
