A little bit of Paradis

The Soul of a Poet

I send Two Sunsets by Emily Dickinson

Paradis | October 18, 2009

I send Two Sunsets –
Day and I — in competition ran –
I finished Two — and several Stars –
While He — was making One –

His own was ampler — but as I
Was saying to a friend –
Mine — is the more convenient
To Carry in the Hand –

Too few the mornings be by Emily Dickinson

Paradis | October 18, 2009

Too few the mornings be,
Too scant the nights.
No lodging can be had
For the delights
That come to earth to stay,
But no apartment find
And ride away.
