Of a Tenderness,
But its still appreciation
Out of Plumb of Speech.

Could die -- did die --
Could smile upon the whole
Through faith in one he met not,
To introduce his soul.

Emily Dickinson

"My Faces are asleep --
But swear, and I will let you by,
You will not wake them up.
Emily Dickinson

First time they try the sky!
