Versos English Emily Dickinson If the foolish, call them "flowers"

English poem

If the foolish, call them "flowers"

by

Listen in the reader

If the foolish, call them "flowers" -- Need the wiser, tell? If the Savants "Classify" them It is just as well!

Those who read the "Revelations" Must not criticize Those who read the same Edition -- With beclouded Eyes!

Could we stand with that Old "Moses" -- "Canaan" denied -- Scan like him, the stately landscape On the other side --

Doubtless, we should deem superfluous Many Sciences, Not pursued by learned Angels In scholastic skies!

Low amid that glad Belles lettres Grant that we may stand, Stars, amid profound Galaxies -- At that grand "Right hand"!
