If He dissolve — then —
there is nothing — more —
Eclipse — at Midnight —
It was dark — before —
Sunset — at Easter —
Blindness — on the Dawn —
Faint Star of Bethlehem —
Gone down!
Would but some God — inform Him —
Or it be too late!
Say — that the pulse just lisps —
The Chariots wait —
Say — that a little life — for His —
Is leaking — red —
His little Spaniel — tell Him!
Will He heed?
(Emily Dickinson)
