Twas such a little-little boat

by Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson

107

'Twas such a little-little boat
That toddled down the bay!
'Twas such a gallant-gallant sea
That beckoned it away!

'Twas such a greedy, greedy wave
That licked it from the Coast-
Nor ever guessed the stately sails
My little craft was lost!
