To Follow Without Fear

Wild Nights – Wild Nights! (Poem 249)
by Emily Dickinson

Wild Nights – Wild Nights!
Were I with thee
Wild Nights should be
Our luxury!

Futile – the winds –
To a heart in port –
Done with the compass –
Done with the chart!

Rowing in Eden –
Ah, the sea!
Might I moor – Tonight –
In thee!

    outstanding piece, coupled with an exciting poem. whatever drugs you are taking to achieve this masterpiece, would you send some my way, please? i seem to have lost my inspiration!

  • Nelson Campbell replied

    Benadryl!! Lol! I recommend it highly! Cheap and over the counter! That’s how I felt last week (reL inspiration) – it just ebbs and flows I guess, sometimes more ebbing for me though. Thanks for your lovely prop!
