Classic poem

Autumn -- overlooked my Knitting --

by Emily Dickinson

Autumn -- overlooked my Knitting --

Dyes -- said He -- have I --

Could disparage a Flamingo --

Show Me them -- said I --

Cochineal -- I chose -- for deeming

It resemble Thee --

And the little Border -- Dusker --

For resembling Me --
