"Angels in the early morning"

XVIII.

Angels in the early morning May be seen the dews among, Stooping, plucking, smiling, flying : Do the buds to them belong ? Angels when the sun is hottest May be seen the sands among, Stooping, plucking, sighing, flying ; Parched the flowers they bear along.

 

from Poems by Emily Dickinson (1890)
"As children bid the guest good-night"	"So bashful when I spied her"
