Housesso The Wise Men Tell Me

Emily Dickinson

127

“Houses”-so the Wise Men tell me-
“Mansions”! Mansions must be warm!
Mansions cannot let the tears in,
Mansions must exclude the storm!

“Many Mansions,” by “his Father,”
I don't know him; snugly built!
Could the Children find the way there-
Some, would even trudge tonight!
