Poem A Day Open in app

Classic poem

Nature and God -- I neither knew

by Emily Dickinson

Nature and God -- I neither knew

Yet Both so well knew me

They startled, like Executors

Of My identity.

Yet Neither told -- that I could learn --

My Secret as secure

As Herschel's private interest

Or Mercury's affair --
