poems we love- part I

To see her is a Picture --
To hear her is a Tune --
To know her an Intemperance
As innocent as June --
To know her not -- Affliction --
To own her for a Friend
A warmth as near as if the Sun
Were shining in your Hand.
Emily Dickinson

Intemperance ~ intoxication

Affliction: great suffering
