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.~
