I Held a Jewel in My Fingers

Our FREE Love Poems are the perfect place to enjoy daily inspiration



I held a jewel in my fingers
And went to sleep
The day was warm, and winds were prosy
I said, "Twill keep"

I woke - and chide my honest fingers,
The Gem was gone
And now, an Amethyst remembrance
Is all I own

Emily Dickinson
