Poem of the day-152: A Long, Long Sleep, a Famous Sleep by Emily Dickinson



A Long, Long Sleep, a Famous Sleep
by Emily Dickinson

A long, long sleep, a famous sleep
That makes no show for dawn
By strech of limb or stir of lid, --
An independent one.

Was ever idleness like this?
Within a hut of stone
To bask the centuries away
Nor once look up for noon?
