A poem by the 19th century American poet, Emily Dickinson.
—
There is no frigate like a book
To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.
This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!
Delightful. I haven’t read this before. Thank you for sharing.
You are welcome Tess. Emily Dickinson certainly has a place on my bookshelves. Best. Kevin
