STEP lightly on this narrow spot Poem by Emily Dickinson

STEP lightly on this narrow spot

Rating: 5.0


STEP lightly on this narrow spot!
The broadest land that grows
Is not so ample as the breast
These emerald seams enclose.

Step lofty; for this name is told
As far as cannon dwell,
Or flag subsist, or fame export
Her deathless syllable.
