| 1197. Morning |
| | | By Emily Dickinson |
| |
| |
| WILL there really be a morning? | |
| Is there such a thing as day? | |
| Could I see it from the mountains | |
| If I were as tall as they? | |
| Has it feet like water lilies? | 5 |
| Has it feathers like a bird? | |
| Is it brought from famous countries | |
| Of which I ’ve never heard? | |
| Oh some scholar, oh some sailor, | |
| Oh some wise man from the skies, | 10 |
| Please to tell a little pilgrim | |
| Where the place called morning lies. | |
