A poem by Emily Dickinson

The Secret

________________________________________________
Title:     The Secret
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

Some things that fly there be, --
Birds, hours, the bumble-bee:
Of these no elegy.

Some things that stay there be, --
Grief, hills, eternity:
Nor this behooveth me.

There are, that resting, rise.
Can I expound the skies?
How still the riddle lies!






[The end]
Emily Dickinson's poem: Secret
