The Skies can't keep their secret!
They tell it to the Hills-
The Hills just tell the Orchards-
And they-the Daffodils!
A Bird-by chance-that goes that way-
Soft overhears the whole-
If I should bribe the little Bird-
Who knows but she would tell?
I think I won't-however-
It's finer-not to know-
If Summer were an Axiom-
What sorcery had Snow?
So keep your secret-Father!
I would not-if I could,
Know what the Sapphire Fellows, do,
In your new-fashioned world!
The Skies Can't Keep Their Secret!
Emily Dickinson
