As Imperceptibly as Grief lyrics

by

Emily Dickinson


As imperceptibly as grief
The summer lapsed away,—
Too imperceptible, at last
To seem like perfidy

A quietness distilled
As twilight long begun
Or Nature, spending with herself
Sequestered afternoon

The dusk drew earlier in
The morning foreign shone,—
A courteous, yet harrowing grace
As guest who would be gone

And thus, without a wing
Or service of a keel
Our summer made her light escape
Into the beautiful
