Tuesday Temptation - Poetry


There is no frigate like a book

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 the human soul!
                                                    
~~Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)

~Wise words, are they not.~
