Poems by Emily Dickinson: It was too late for man

Updated May 6, 2020 | Infoplease Staff

XXXII

 
It was too late for man,
But early yet for God;
Creation impotent to help,
But prayer remained our side.
How excellent the heaven,
When earth cannot be had;
How hospitable, then, the face
Of our old neighbor, God!
