'Listen' has the exact same letters as 'Silent'. Coincidence?

Emily Dickinson – Why do they shut me out of heaven?

on March 4, 2013

angel10 Emily Dickinson   Why do they shut me out of heaven?

Why -- do they shut me out of Heaven?
Did I sing -- too loud?
But -- I can sing a little "Minor,"
Timid as a Bird!
Wouldn't the angels try me --
Just -- once more --
Just -- see -- if I troubled them
But don't -- shut the door,!
Oh, if I -- were the Gentlemen
In the "White Robes"
And they -- were the little Hand -- that knocked --
Could --I forbid?
