I Worked For Chaff, And Earning Wheat

Title:     I Worked For Chaff, And Earning Wheat
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

I worked for chaff, and earning wheat
Was haughty and betrayed.
What right had fields to arbitrate
In matters ratified?

I tasted wheat, -- and hated chaff,
And thanked the ample friend;
Wisdom is more becoming viewed
At distance than at hand.

[The end]
Emily Dickinson's poem: I Worked For Chaff, And Earning Wheat
