The Butterfly upon the Sky

1521

The Butterfly upon the Sky,

That doesn’t know its Name

And hasn’t any tax to pay

And hasn’t any Home

Is just as high as you and I,

And higher, I believe,

So soar away and never sigh

And that’s the way to grieve—

Written by

Emily Dickinson

1830-1886 / Female / American
