Poem A Day

I went to Heaven

by Emily Dickinson

I went to Heaven --

'Twas a small Town --

Lit -- with a Ruby --

Lathed -- with Down --

Stiller -- than the fields

At the full Dew --

Beautiful -- as Pictures --

No Man drew.

People -- like the Moth --

Of Mechlin -- frames --

Duties -- of Gossamer --

And Eider -- names --

Almost -- contented --

I -- could be --

'Mong such unique

Society --
