Emily Dickinson

10 December 1830 – 15 May 1886 / Amherst / Massachusetts

The grave my little cottage is

The grave my little cottage is,
Where 'Keeping house' for thee
I make my parlor orderly
And lay the marble tea.

For two divided, briefly,
A cycle, it may be,
Till everlasting life unite
In strong society.
