I like to see it lap the Miles - (383)
BY EMILY DICKINSON


I like to see it lap the Miles - And lick the Valleys up -
And stop to feed itself at Tanks - And then - prodigious step
Around a Pile of Mountains - And supercilious peer
In Shanties - by the sides of Roads - And then a Quarry pare
To fit its sides
And crawl between
Complaining all the while
In horrid - hooting stanza - Then chase itself down Hill - And neigh like Boanerges - Then - prompter than a Star
Stop - docile and omnipotent
At it's own stable door
