There is a June when Corn is cut by Emily Dickinson
There is a June when Corn is cut And Roses in the Seed -- A Summer briefer than the first But tenderer indeed
As should a Face supposed the Grave's Emerge a single Noon In the Vermilion that it wore Affect us, and return --
Two Seasons, it is said, exist -- The Summer of the Just, And this of Ours, diversified With Prospect, and with Frost --
May not our Second with its First So infinite compare That We but recollect the one The other to prefer?
