A Charm Invests A Face

Title:     A Charm Invests A Face
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

A charm invests a face
Imperfectly beheld, --
The lady dare not lift her veil
For fear it be dispelled.

But peers beyond her mesh,
And wishes, and denies, --
Lest interview annul a want
That image satisfies.

[The end]
Emily Dickinson's poem: Charm Invests A Face
