Emily Dickinson

All forgot for recollecting
Just a paltry One-
All forsook, for just a Stranger's
New Accompanying-

Grace of Wealth, and Grace of Station
Less accounted than
An unknown Esteem possessing
Estimate-
Who can-

Home effaced-Her faces dwindled
Nature-
altered small
Sun-
if shone-or Storm-if shattered-
Overlooked I all

Dropped-my fate-a timid Pebble-
In thy bolder SeaProve-
me-Sweet-if I regret it-
Prove Myself-of Thee-

Change and Transformation Gratitude Longing and Absence Money and Wealth Soul
