Emily Dickinson “Safe in their Alabaster Chambers—“ (814)

Safe in their Alabaster Chambers— Untouched by Morning And untouched by Noon— Sleep the meek members of the Resurrection— Rafter of satin, And Roof of stone.

Light laughs the breeze In her Castle above them— Babbles the Bee in a solid Ear, Pipe the Sweet Birds in ignorant cadence— Ah, what sagacity perished here!
