  • Because I Could Not Stop For Death

    A Poem By Emily Dikinson

    Because I could not stop for death
    He Kindly stopped for me
    The Carriage held but just ourselves
    And Immortality.

    We slowly drove- He knew no haste
    And I had put away
    My labour and my leisure too,
    For His Civility

    We passed the School, where Children strove
    At Recess-in the Ring,
    We passed the field of Gazing grain
    We passed the setting sun-
    Or rather-He passed Us-
    The Dews drew quivering and chill-
    For only Gossamer, my Gown-
    My Tippet-only Tulle-

    We paused before a House that seemed
    A Swelling of the Ground-
    The roof was scarely visible-
    The Corince-in the Ground-

    Since then-'tis Centuries-and yet
    Feels shorter than the day
    I first surmised the Horses' heads
    Were towards Eternity-
