Emily Dickinson (1830–86). Complete Poems. 1924. |
Part One: Life CXXIII |
| OUR lives are Swiss,— | |
| So still, so cool, | |
| Till, some odd afternoon, | |
| The Alps neglect their curtains, | |
| And we look farther on. | 5 |
| Italy stands the other side, | |
| While, like a guard between, | |
| The solemn Alps, | |
| The siren Alps, | |
| Forever intervene! | 10 |
