My Nosegays Are For Captives

    By Emily Elizabeth Dickinson



    My nosegays are for captives;
    Dim, long-expectant eyes,
    Fingers denied the plucking,
    Patient till paradise,

    To such, if they should whisper
    Of morning and the moor,
    They bear no other errand,
    And I, no other prayer.
