'T Was Later When The Summer Went

________________________________________________
Title:     'T Was Later When The Summer Went
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

'T WAS later when the summer went
Than when the cricket came,
And yet we knew that gentle clock
Meant nought but going home.

'T was sooner when the cricket went
Than when the winter came,
Yet that pathetic pendulum
Keeps esoteric time.







[The end]
Emily Dickinson's poem: 'T Was Later When The Summer Went
