There is a Zone whose even Years

by Emily Dickinson


Original Language English

There is a Zone whose even Years
No Solstice interrupt --
Whose Sun constructs perpetual Noon
Whose perfect Seasons wait --

Whose Summer set in Summer, till
The Centuries of June
And Centuries of August cease
And Consciousness -- is Noon.

-- from The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson, Edited by Thomas H. Johnson
