461 br br A Wife—at daybreak I shall be— br Sunrise—Hast thou a Flag for me? br At Midnight, I am but a Maid, br How short it takes to make a Bride— br Then—Midnight, I have passed from thee br Unto the East, and Victory— br br Midnight—Good Night! I hear them call, br The Angels bustle in the Hall— br Softly my Future climbs the Stair, br I fumble at my Childhood's prayer br So soon to be a Child no more— br Eternity, I'm coming—Sire, br Savior—I've seen the face—before!br br Emily Dickinsonbr br
