WHEN NIGHT IS ALMOST DONE by EMILY DICKINSON

Poet Analysis

Last Line: That frightened — but an Hour
Subject(s): NIGHT; TIME;

When Night is almost done -
And Sunrise grows so near
That we can touch the Spaces -
It's time to smooth the Hair -

And get the Dimples ready -
And wonder we could care
For that old - faded Midnight -
That frightened - but an Hour
