Moment of Zen: Reading

2 comments:

  1. Emily Dickson & The Zen of Reading a Book:

    Her!poem seemed quite well aligned to the theme of today’s Moment of Zen.

    “There is no Frigate like a Book
    To take us Lands away
    Nor any Coursers like a Page
    Of prancing Poetry –
    This Traverse may the poorest take
    Without oppress of Toll –
    How frugal is the Chariot
    That bears the Human Soul –“

  2. It definitely fits the theme. Thanks for commenting with this poem. I don’t think I’ve ever read this, but she did wrote over 1800 poems in her lifetime, so I haven’t read them all. LOL
