ONE SISTER HAVE I IN OUR HOUSE

EMILY DICKINSON 

​

One Sister have I in our house –

And one a hedge away.

There’s only one recorded,

But both belong to me.

  

One came the way that I came –         

And wore my past year’s gown –

The other as a bird her nest,

Builded our hearts among.

  

She did not sing as we did –

It was a different tune –     

Herself to her a Music

As Bumble-bee of June.

  

Today is far from Childhood –

But up and down the hills

I held her hand the tighter –         

Which shortened all the miles –

  

And still her hum 

The years among,

Deceives the Butterfly;

Still in her Eye 

The Violets lie

Mouldered this many May.         

  

I spilt the dew –

But took the morn, –

I chose this single star

From out the wide night’s numbers –

Sue – forevermore!
