AS IF SOME LITTLE ARCTIC FLOWER
by: Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)
- S if some little arctic flower,
- Upon the polar hem,
- Went wandering down the latitudes,
- Until it puzzled came
- To continents of summer,
- To firmaments of sun,
- To strange, bright crowds of flowers,
- And birds of foreign tongue!
- I say, as if this little flower
- To Eden wandered in--
- What then? Why, nothing, only
- Your inference therefrom!
