XLVII.

Name: Poems, Second Series - XLVII.
Author: Emily Dickinson

I MANY times thought peace had come,

When peace was far away;

As wrecked men deem they sight the land

At centre of the sea,

And struggle slacker, but to prove,

As hopelessly as I,

How many the fictitious shores

Before the harbor lie.
