I NEVER LOST AS MUCH BUT TWICE

by: Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)

      NEVER lost as much but twice,
      And that was in the sod;
      Twice have I stood a beggar
      Before the door of God!
       
      Angels, twice descending,
      Reimbursed my store.
      Burglar, banker, father,
      I am poor once more!
