A poem by Emily Dickinson

Epitaph

________________________________________________
Title:     Epitaph
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

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.






[The end]
Emily Dickinson's poem: Epitaph
