245 I held a Jewel in my fingers— And went to sleep— The day was warm, and winds were prosy— I said “’Twill keep”— I woke—and chid my honest fingers, The Gem was gone— And now, an Amethyst remembrance Is all I own—

I held a Jewel in my fingers
245 I held a Jewel in my fingers— And went to sleep— The day was warm, and winds were prosy— I said “’Twill keep”— I woke—and chid my honest fingers, The Gem was gone— And now, an Amethyst remembrance Is all I own—
Emily Dickinson
1830 - 1886/Female/American
