Emily Dickinson's Collected Poems

Part Three: Nature 53. Pink, small, and punctual

MAY-FLOWER.


Pink, small, and punctual,

Aromatic, low,

Covert in April,

Candid in May,


Dear to the moss,

Known by the knoll,

Next to the robin

In every human soul.


Bold little beauty,

Bedecked with thee,

Nature forswears

Antiquity.
