Two Worlds

by Emily Dickinson · (no date)
Published 01/07/1880

It makes no difference abroad,

The seasons fit the same,

The mornings blossom into noons,

And split their pods of flame.


Wild-flowers kindle in the woods,

The brooks brag all the day;

No blackbird bates his jargoning

For passing Calvary.


Auto-da-fé and judgment

Are nothing to the bee;

His separation from his rose

To him seems misery.
