Two Swimmers Wrestled On The Spar

________________________________________________
Title:     Two Swimmers Wrestled On The Spar
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

Two swimmers wrestled on the spar
Until the morning sun,
When one turned smiling to the land.
O God, the other one!

The stray ships passing spied a face
Upon the waters borne,
With eyes in death still begging raised,
And hands beseeching thrown.






[The end]
