I
Good Morning – Midnight –
I’m coming Home –
Day – got tired of Me –
How could I – of Him?

Sunshine was a sweet place –
I liked to stay –
But Morn – didn’t want me – now –
So – Goodnight – Day!

I can look – cant I –
When the East is Red?
The Hills – have a way – then –
That puts the Heart – abroad –

You – are not so fair – Midnight –
I chose – Day –
But – please take a little Girl –
He turned away!

© Emily Dickinson: Gedichte, Phillipp Reclam jun. Stuttgart 1970, Nr. 41

II
How slow the Wind – how slow the Sea –
How late their Feathers be!

© Emily Dickinson: Biene und Klee, 51 Shorter Poems; Urs Engeler Editor 2001, Nr.1607

III [Epilog]
Trust adsjusts her “Peradventure” –
Phantoms entered “and not you”.

© Emily Dickinson: Biene und Klee, 51 Shorter Poems; Urs Engeler Editor 2001, Nr. 1177
