my morning poem,,,
2 from emily dickinson
"Unto Me?" I do not know you
"Unto Me?" I do not know you—
Where may be your House?
Where may be your House?
"I am Jesus—Late of Judea—
Now—of Paradise"—
Now—of Paradise"—
Wagons—have you—to convey me?
This is far from Thence—
This is far from Thence—
"Arms of Mine—sufficient Phaeton—
Trust Omnipotence"—
Trust Omnipotence"—
I am spotted—"I am Pardon"—
I am small—"The Least
Is esteemed in Heaven the Chiefest—
Occupy my House"—
I am small—"The Least
Is esteemed in Heaven the Chiefest—
Occupy my House"—
Emily Dickinson
i died for beauty,
I died for beauty, but was scarce
Adjusted in the tomb,
When one who died for truth was lain
In an adjoining room.
Adjusted in the tomb,
When one who died for truth was lain
In an adjoining room.
He questioned softly why I failed?
"For beauty," I replied.
"And I for truth - the two are one;
We brethren are," he said.
"For beauty," I replied.
"And I for truth - the two are one;
We brethren are," he said.
And so, as kinsmen met a-night,
We talked between the rooms,
Until the moss had reached our lips,
And covered up our names.
We talked between the rooms,
Until the moss had reached our lips,
And covered up our names.
Emily Dickinson
