We learned the Whole of Love - Emily Dickinson

Bookstore - from here


We learned the Whole of Love —
The Alphabet — the Words —
A Chapter — then the mighty Book —
Then — Revelation closed —

But in Each Other's eyes
An Ignorance beheld —
Diviner than the Childhood's —
And each to each, a Child —

Attempted to expound
What Neither — understood —
Alas, that Wisdom is so large —
And Truth — so manifold!

Emily Elizabeth Dickinson (b. on Dec 10, 1830 in Amherst, Massachusetts, USA; d. May 15, 1886 in Amherst, Massachusetts, USA)
