by Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886)
Wild nights! — Wild nights!
Language: English
Wild nights! — Wild nights! Were I with thee, Wild nights should be Our luxury! Futile — the Wind — To a heart in port, — Done with the Compass, — Done with the Chart! Rowing in Eden — Ah! the Sea! Might I but moor — Tonight — In thee!
