From:
Forever – is composed of Nows – (690)
BY EMILY DICKINSON
Forever – is composed of Nows –
‘Tis not a different time –
Except for Infiniteness –
And Latitude of Home –
From this – experienced Here –
Remove the Dates – to These –
Let Months dissolve in further Months –
And Years – exhale in Years –
Without Debate – or Pause –
Or Celebrated Days –
No different Our Years would be
From Anno Dominies –
oooo I always wanted to read Emily Dickinson and I can say her writing does not disappoint. Funny how this is the theme of the day. Just gave a friend advice about living in the now and tackling problems one thing at a time.
well said, leading to well lived…..
Examining life/
More closely teaches patience/
When I stop and think/
