Emily Dickinson - I held a Jewel in my fingers

245 <br /> <br />I held a Jewel in my fingers— <br />And went to sleep— <br />The day was warm, and winds were prosy— <br />I said "'Twill keep"— <br /> <br />I woke—and chid my honest fingers, <br />The Gem was gone— <br />And now, an Amethyst remembrance <br />Is all I own—<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-held-a-jewel-in-my-fingers/
