I held a jewel by Emily Dickinson

[kenoki112]

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 chide my honest fingers,
The Gem was gone
And now, an Amethyst remembrance
Is all I own

Actually none of Emily Dickinson's poems were titled some were numbered and none were set up in lines like the one above since she was nearly blind

All of her poems can be sung to the tune of amazing grace. :)
